Hi! I'm Heather C. from NC. I'm a 24 yr old quiverfull stay-at-home mom to 3 little blessings so far. Happily serving as helpmeet to my hubby Adam for just over 5 years. I am new to covering, and still trying to adjust. I have been praying about it and studying it for almost 6 months now, all while fighting the idea because of fear. I will be the first and only headcovering lady in the church. Actually this week's mid-week service will be my first time covering at church. I don't know how people will react at all because the idea is so foreign to them. I switched to only wearing skirts & dresses about 2 years ago, but have known for some time that that just wasn't enough. I have also been convicted to stop wearing most jewelry (except my wedding rings) and to stop wearing makeup. I seldom wore makeup before and them it was so light most people didn't notice anyway. Please pray as I start this journey that I will have the courage to obey the Lord. I am starting small as to not cause too much of a scene at church. I have a couple of these in various colors that I will wear opened up not bunched: www.garlandsofgrace.com/cream-cotton-headcovering.html

Welcome, Heather! Covering can be a little "scary" at first, because we are so self-concious. When we get over ourselves, and other people get used to it, it will cease to be an issue. Let us know how things went at the midweek service Sis Tammy

welcome sister, glad you found us! at first I was very self conscience about wearing the headcovering too. now I forget sometimes that it is on. LOL I have also tried many different styles until I found the one I really like. So, if you find you are uncomfortable with one style after a while try another.
