My grandparents were Mennonite, I was raised Catholic, but left in my middle 20’s..My grandma wore a head covering to church and in public..she wore darker dresses and shoes. She was everything to me. Fifty years ago I accepted Jesus as my Savior and I can still remember the joy my grandmother felt. She knew that my relationship with Christ was more important than anything. She probably would have been happy to see me wearing head coverings, but never mentioned it. She was just happy to know that I loved the Lord and accepted His Gift of salvation. I greatly respect you, Megan, as I did her. You’re a beautiful young lady! 💕
I just love this channel. It is the simple non toxic daily family life I needed as a new “homemaker”. It’s the adult version of CZcamsrs I watched as a teen 😂
Hi! My husbond had leukemia 15 years ago, and had to take a zillion blood tests the 42 months his treatment went on, and the years after. He got one very good tip when it came to helping the nurses to find his blood veins: Drink at least 1 pint the hours before the test. It really works. I also have a medical issue that requires blood tests every sixth week. When I drink a lot before the tests there are no difficulties. If you are weight concious, just know how much you drank, and tell the midwife (and yourself ;-). My husbond is well and kicking today, btw ;-)
With my 3rd and 4th pregnancies, I didn’t look at the scale and asked my doctor and her assistant to not tell me my weight or write it on any paper. They were gracious to accommodate me and it was SO wonderful to not be stressed about it! I’m also petite and have a good relationship with food (I’m a dietitian, actually 😅), but man, body changes in pregnancy are HARD!
Love this time of year. I wear a head covering for church. But other than that, I usually wear a hat when I go out. I'm a baptist, but I do believe in head covering for church when I publically pray in a public setting. Or if I teach or attend church, Sunday school, or ladies' settings.
I agree. We also cover our heads when we pray because Bible does say that “every wife who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head”. Love your head coverings they look so comfortable ❤️
What helps with blood tests is drinking water hydrates the vein making it easier for them to poke it. If I don’t drink water, I’m black & blue from them trying.
I have bought from Joyce's before, and also from a few small etsy sellers. It took a while to figure out what styles felt right, but it is a reminder of God's care and protection that also helps me feel more connected to my sisters in Christ.
I ordered from Joyce’s after watching your video from a couple years ago. While my husband does not prefer the traditional veils, I’m able to get some from her shop that are supposed to be worn as a longer veil in back and I fold them similar to how you did with yours so it gives more of a large headband look. They’re the softest t-shirt material and hold up so well. I also love garlands of grace
Recently started head covering too- tried a few different ones you’ve mentioned and that I’ve seen recommended around the internet, but ended up with a garlands of Grace covering. Absolutely love it! Once there’s room in my budget, I will be ordering from them again! 👏👏👏
The “long hair” we interpret as a head covering is specifically uncut hair grown to its natural length. We believe it’s “removed” when it’s cut or trimmed :) while I simply maintain uncut hair, I think a physical veiling is nice as well
Paul is concerned with covering at specific times (prayer and prophesying), so must be that it is a removable covering to put on and take off not something permanent like our hair. Also if you study the Greek words used, they're all the same except for verse 15 where a different word is used to refer to natural hair verses a covering. Just some things to consider!
Yes definitely in agreement with head covering Meghan ❤🙏🏻 I cover my head during church, prayer or whenever I beseech the Lord or want to commune with Him 🙏🏻❤️🙌🏻
I know sometims Mennonites can claim this practice as a Mennonite thing, but it really isn't. There are so many other believers who take the passage literally today!
@@MeganFoxUnlocked does covering part of your hair save you? Or does it keep you in salvation? What about how God said if a woman has long hair, it is her glory. Why hide it if God says it is your glory? Jesus set me free, I do not need to cover my hair. Jesus saves, not a tiny piece of fabric.
@@freeinJesus Most scholars agree that the 1 Corinthians 11 head covering passage is probably the most difficult passage in the entire Bible to understand. While I disagree with Megan's take on it, I do have a similar belief. Neither one of us would say it's a salvation issue. Megan has said many, many times that it is not something that saves or keeps us saved.
@@carolberubee it is only difficult to understand if you don't understand salvation. Jesus set us free. No longer do we have to do all this outward stuff. He set us free. I'm not really interested in what scholars have to say. I have no issue with Megan. If she wants to cover her head that's fine, but to say those who interpret it differently are misinterpreting scripture, or not taking God's Word literally is not accurate. It goes back to understanding salvation. If you don't understand what truly being set free is, you will think you need to do things. We only need to repent and believe, and cling to Jesus. Remain in the faith of Him till the very end. That is it.
@@freeinJesus I think you're missing the point. 1. We all agree it's not a salvation issue. 2. Experts in the Greek language, along with experts in ancient Roman and Greek culture, agree that this passage is not so straight forward. You can say you see that passage in a perfect black and white way, but you'd have to defend that view using your expertise in the Greek language and cultural practices in 1st century Corinth. 3. Megan is living out her conviction on this issue and since she has never said that it's a salvation issue for her or anyone else, why are you so offended? 4. Romans 14 -- Who are you to judge Megan on a matter of conscience? You are free to not veil; she is free to veil.
I remember my Mom always being extremely stressed out when she "had to have guests". And that was such a pity because it meant that neither she nor us children could enjoy spending time with the people that came to visit - and that we hardly ever had guests at all. So I would just like to share what I concluded from this experience: Please do remember that your guests come to visit YOU, not your house. They come for the company, not for the food. (Of course you want to serve them something nice, but if that ist their main motivation for coming, they can always go to a restaurant). As for yourself, you invite them because you want to spend time with them, not because you need to prove something to them. I apply these principles and, well, there actually are people who don't think I'm a good host. Those are the people who think it's a competition. But then there are people who love to visit me because they know they can just relax and feel at home. It's just not possible to please everyone.
I am LCMS Lutheran, and I have noticed that some of the younger women in more orthodox congregations have begun head-covering in the Divine Service. My mother grew up as a Lutheran in the 40's and 50's, and she said that women always wore a hat to church. I don't know if that was a head-covering thing or just the fashion of the time.
I'm catholic and when we were growing up, it was mandatory to wear a head covering. That changed in the 60s, but I'm noticing more and more, that women in my church are starting to wear head coverings such as what you are wearing. Or, they have the longer veils, I think they used to call them Mantillas. I've been considering wearing them again, so I will definitely look at your friend's site. I enjoy your videos, even though I am at a different stage in life (I have 4 grandchildren) than you are.🥰
Hey Megan, baking with cranberries is easier than you might think. If you get them fresh or frozen, just fold them into any batter like you would chocolate chips. If you get them, dried up, soak them in boiling water for a half hour to soften them up and make them plump and then fold them in, again, like you would chocolate chips. My favourite thing to make with cranberries is white chocolate and cranberry shortbread cookies. Cookies are the only exception, I feel like, to the soaking rule. You just use the shrivelled up cranberries like you would raisins.
I can’t express enough how much I love your videos! They are so encouraging and inspiring. I’m not a mom yet but when I become one I know I want to be just like you! I look forward to Thursday every week!
Oh yes! I am the same way when it comes to weighing in at the OB/gyn office during pregnancy. My blood pressure even elevates when I get on the scale. It's ridiculous 😅. So, you're not alone! 😊
September Farms, we visit every time we go to Lancaster. Your family is growing so fast, can’t wait to meet your new bundle of joy. Your energy is amazing!
I'm Muslim and non binary and cover my head differently depending on the day. During Ramadan I try to cover up more and i struggle during summer bc of the heat.
I read this In Corinthians because I never knew what a Mennonite actually was until I saw your page. I always thought it was Paul talking about the Corinthians in the context of their culture because women were showing they were not “conservative “ by not wearing a scarf. ? I tried it but I felt super strange in the context of my own culture- it just wasn’t for me. But for what it’s worth- it looks super cute on others. I’m glad we are still family in Christ on issues that really matter. Love your vlogs. 😊
Wow, your children are all adorable - they grow so fast don't they?Seems Miller was just born but now he is a toddler and Fletcher has outgrown toddler & become a kid.
I love the knit head covering. I saw you wearing one in an Instagram story that had flowers on it. Is that from Amazon too? I've only been headcovering for about a year but my husband prefers the scarves. I can't resist wearing the menonite style lace Coverings from Joyce's Coverings. They are sooo much easier. You put them on and don't have to touch it again. I feel like with the scarf ones I have yo re tie all day. We were raised being taught a women's hair is her covering, but now that I'm an adult rereading... I realize the chapter even says it is not. 😳
I was raised with the thought that the hair was the covering too. But now as an adult, I'm reading deeper and trying to make the best choice for myself.
@@laurenj.5312the headcovering movement has a lot of information. One point they have is the Greek word for cover. The word cover is used 6 times in the passage Five times katakalupto (covered) / akatakaluptos (uncovered) is used In verse 15 the word cover is a different word, peribolaion. Even though English translates both Greek words as cover, Paul uses a different word to distinguish natural covering to artificial covering.
Megan, your video was beautiful; you have such a wonderful life. Did you have think about writing a book with all the drinks you create? You have so many; and all your drinks look delicous. I would definitely buy the book. I'm so happy your doctor's appointment went well; I knew you were so nervous! Thanks for sharing your life with us; love your videos.
I had a time many years ago now when I talked with my husband about how I wanted to wear a head covering. He said that in biblical times it was worn to not draw attention to the women but that if I did it in our church it would have the opposite effect as I would be the only one . I've gone back and forth on it. I loved your church outfit and saw the link to the shirt. Do you have one for the skirt as well? Thanks for another wonderful video!
I'm the only person in my church and area that covers my head, and I do get discouraged at times. I get weird looks all the time. But I remind myself that I am obeying God and His opinion is the only one that matters! 😊 I am also fortunate that my husband is in agreement with me covering. Be strong, sister in Christ. ❤
I also struggle back and forth in this one - I can't see a conclusive yes/no from my reading, both sides have good points, I wouldn't mind wearing one because they're pretty but I don't want to only cover because ai like how it looks, I want it to be a proper conviction. I'll keep on praying about it 😊 good luck with your journey!
Kuntryside Orchard has fresh apple cider for $6.00 a gallon. We love it and it's definitely our favorite! Thought you might like that price verses $10.😉
At first I didn’t follow your channel after watching a few videos, cus I though we’ll, she’s a mom and Mennonite and I’m neither lol but I kept coming back to your videos so I subscribed. Then again I didn’t really watch that much cus again same thing lolll but every time I watch your videos I think I need to watch more because your videos are calm yet interesting, cozy yet exciting and it puts me in such a good mood for the day after watching your video at breakfast!!! The only I have in common is I am a housewife so I also like the getting chores done attitude! 😆😆😆
Hi, i read the scripture about head coverings. He was addressing the people who practiced a custom. With Christ being our mediator at His resurrection we go through Him not through ANYONE else when we pray. The covering is no longer needed.
there's about 6 mama vloggers I try to keep up with currently. You have become my #1 favorite lately. very fun. thank you for enjoyable content. i appreciate your dedication to your beautiful family and your OWN interests and aspirations! can't wait to follow you through-out your next journey of pregnancy and baby. :)
@@PollyWannaCracker21 farmhouse on boone, this mama's house, Natalie Bennet, Michelle Reed, this golden hour. Allison bickerstaff is great too. Love her! And for some peaceful non mama vloggers "trout and coffee" & "Lou C".
Greetings from the middle of Nebraska. I so enjoy your videos!! So glad your OBGYN appt went well. Your patio has turned in to such a wonderful entertaining area. Back in my day growing up in a Catholic church and school we wore chapel veils at mass. If we forgot our veil, our nuns would bobby pin a kleenex on our heads. I loved wearing chapel veils. No longer required in our Catholic faith but some women still wear a head covering to mass. Your area is so beautiful for biking and walking. Your videos always bring joy to my day so thank you for taking us along!! The kiddos are darling!
I dont know what the video is about but i know I'll enjoy and learn something from you when i watch it!!! You are my good addiction:) Thursday is my day off, and after work out, laundry, cooking, groceries I plan to sit down and enjoy!!!
You look so pretty in white Meghan and your head covering. You inspire me to wear it more often not only when I’m praying! God will reward you for being the light in this world!!!
I miss going to agape! We'd go at like 230 so there wasn't usually a wait, but never went on a Saturday. I think it's great how busy they always are! Where we live now I haven't found anything like what's in Lancaster county. I miss living there 😔
Loved this video - Was just curious why are they / or this called ‘head covering’ when it’s not actually covering the head? Seems it would be more appropriately called a “bun cover” ❤❤
Megan, I LOVE your videos! I'm a fellow Lancaster County native and can't believe I didn't find you sooner. I love when you show local places because I've been to so many of them :) (Griddle and Grind is amazing, btw) I grew up going to Mennonite school (I went to Kraybill Mennonite K-8) and I wore a head covering for a while in my late teens. God has taken me on such a unique journey and I don't have children yet (will be getting married in about 6-7 months!), but I have the desire to stay at home and raise children. Your videos are so inspiring when I think about my future, and I love the cozy reminders of how simple pleasures in life are the best.
Just an FYI that kombucha does have a slight alcohol content, so it's generally not recommended to drink while pregnant. Maybe you didn't drink the kombucha you poured in your video, but thought I would mention it just in case. :)
It is a tradition that I think is having a come back at least amongst Catholics, for most of our history women covered their head when attending church. It´s a beautiful tradition.
My cousin works at Ágape! Beautiful place. Love watching your videos. All my family lives around your area. Wish I could meet you in person. You seem like such a fun person!
I like the way you explain the reason you wear your hair covering I am of the Pentecostal faith and we do not cut or hair or trim it, we do not wear the hair covering but we do believe that the married woman should wear their hair up, stating that it’s for God and their husband! Most of all I’m thankful to know about having a personal relationship with Jesus! That’s what’s really important and everything else will follow May God bless you and your family
That's so funny cinnamon makes you think of crafts because it makes ME think of craft stores like Michael's or JoAnn Fabrics!! 😂😂 Memories of going in there with my mom when I was little. Love it. 🥰
I was looking into head coverings from your videos and I see how if you don't wear a wedding ring it would absolutely be something a married woman should do for me being someone who has another symbol for being married I don't feel I need to wear one. That being said there are a lot of times I do wear one because I was doing it consistently for about 2 weeks while I was looking into it and discovered a long list of practical reasons to wear them especially as a mom but yeah after studying the passage and and the history behind it that is just where I've landed on the subject for right now. When I wear them I made some that are like the second style you tried on out of some fabric scraps from my grandma
I ordered my first veils from Joyce's the other day! I went based off an old video of yours that you mentioned 7.5 by 8" I hope that size works for me!!
Hello dearest Megan! Always the most lovely, cheerful, God centred videos ever. ❤ Thankyou for representing a true Christian woman + sister in Christ. Ive been praying about the head covering as mentioned in Corinthians also. Much thanks & Gods blessings xxx
I'm Catholic, and years ago, we had to wear them to church. Head must be covered. We called them Chaple Caps. Not many women wear them nowadays. However, more and more women are wearing them again.
@@MeganFoxUnlockedYes, when I heard you talk about the " trad wife" trend in the past, I assumed you were talking about Catholics! In the 1960s, a lot of things were modernized in the Church, and among young people especially there's a movement towards reclaiming older Catholic traditions like having the service in Latin, covering heads, and so on. Those who take it to legalistic extremes get called "toxic trads". Interesting stuff!
I think you did an awesome job on the thumbnail, it's beautiful! I'm enjoying this video after finding the right one- by mistake, I started on one of yours from last year & kept thinking why does everyone look so much younger than I remember? I couldn't believe you cut the extension cord again, so I checked which video I was actually watching 😜
$13 here in Montana for the good cider! Ugh! And the cinnamon stick smell 1000% always reminds me of my mom's fabric craft apples lol. I did not know other moms made those!
Hey Megan, I also am nervous everytime I have to have blood work done because they never find good veins on me 😭 My kids a older now (18, 16 and 12) but when the bigger two where little both my grandmas where still alive and the really got to enjoy quite a bit of their greatgrandchildren.
22:00 its about $10-$15 for a gallon of good, local cider. I would say that it’s 100% worth the cost compared to the grocery store stuff. I usually buy 2 gallons a year, a small price for an enjoyable treat
Thank you for such a lovely video! How special that you had some mom-daughter time with your sweet angel! I am praying for you and baby and hope you are keeping well. Lots of blessings to you and yours! ☀️
I love watching your videos that one look like a lot of fun. Very blessed beautiful children. See you in the next video. I want to see your fall Decour have a blessed Thursday night.❤
I’m Catholic and cover in Mass and the Adoration chapel. I’ve been praying and discerning covering full time. I love your veil style but I’m hesitating a bit. Maybe I’ll take a trip out to Joyce’s 😊
I love Agave ! It’s so good there. I also love going to September Farms but I have to admit I haven’t been there since before Covid hit. Fox Meadow is close to me. I just love living in this area. Thank you for such wonderful videos I look forward to them every Thursday 😊
Fun video:) I just paid $10 for a half of a gallon of Apple Cider in Missouri, so I think you are getting a good deal. Crazy to say, everything is so expensive these days!

I love that Josh seems to be getting more comfortable in front of the camera! Great video!
Megan..I love your channel, and I love that you honor and stay true to your convictions. You are most inspiring.
You need to be super hydrated before having blood drawn so it's easier to get the stick right first time if it's difficult. Start day before.
What helps with blood tests is drinking water hydrates the vein making it easier for them to poke it. If I don’t drink water, I’m black & blue from them trying.

We’re from different worlds but you just motivated me to get up off couch. Thank you
Miller's thumbs up should garner you a lifetime sponsorship from Green Chef. hehe. And Happy Birthday, Evonnie!
I started covering recently as well!! Especially coming from a non-Mennonite background, Joyce’s veils really makes covering practical and beautiful!
I get all my headcoverings from Joyce's Veils too! ❤ I also used one as a pattern to make a couple on my own.

You hit the nail on the head with the 60s women's liberation where headcoverings were no longer worn. ☹️ Churches in other countries still do it.

I've only been headcovering for about a year but my husband prefers the scarves. I can't resist wearing the menonite style lace Coverings from Joyce's Coverings. They are sooo much easier. You put them on and don't have to touch it again. I feel like with the scarf ones I have yo re tie all day.
We were raised being taught a women's hair is her covering, but now that I'm an adult rereading... I realize the chapter even says it is not. 😳
Yes those are from amazon as well.
I was raised with the thought that the hair was the covering too. But now as an adult, I'm reading deeper and trying to make the best choice for myself.
👍
@@laurenj.5312the headcovering movement has a lot of information. One point they have is the Greek word for cover.
The word cover is used 6 times in the passage
Five times katakalupto (covered) / akatakaluptos (uncovered) is used
In verse 15 the word cover is a different word, peribolaion.
Even though English translates both Greek words as cover, Paul uses a different word to distinguish natural covering to artificial covering.
I love the place u went to see the sunflower I went this summer from ur suggestion and my family loved it. Will be back next summer.
I started covering my hair because I visit patients in their home, to avoid the smells. However, I really do enjoy wearing them now.
Megan, your video was beautiful; you have such a wonderful life. Did you have think about writing a book with all the drinks you create? You have so many; and all your drinks look delicous. I would definitely buy the book. I'm so happy your doctor's appointment went well; I knew you were so nervous! Thanks for sharing your life with us; love your videos.
As a Latter Day Saint we use head coverings in our temples. Part of our sacred temple clothes.
I had a time many years ago now when I talked with my husband about how I wanted to wear a head covering. He said that in biblical times it was worn to not draw attention to the women but that if I did it in our church it would have the opposite effect as I would be the only one . I've gone back and forth on it.
I loved your church outfit and saw the link to the shirt. Do you have one for the skirt as well? Thanks for another wonderful video!
I'm the only person in my church and area that covers my head, and I do get discouraged at times. I get weird looks all the time. But I remind myself that I am obeying God and His opinion is the only one that matters! 😊 I am also fortunate that my husband is in agreement with me covering. Be strong, sister in Christ. ❤
I also struggle back and forth in this one - I can't see a conclusive yes/no from my reading, both sides have good points, I wouldn't mind wearing one because they're pretty but I don't want to only cover because ai like how it looks, I want it to be a proper conviction. I'll keep on praying about it 😊 good luck with your journey!
Loved this video!! The end was absolutely beautiful with the Bible verse, the sky and then the bird flys across!! ❤
Kuntryside Orchard has fresh apple cider for $6.00 a gallon. We love it and it's definitely our favorite! Thought you might like that price verses $10.😉
At first I didn’t follow your channel after watching a few videos, cus I though we’ll, she’s a mom and Mennonite and I’m neither lol but I kept coming back to your videos so I subscribed. Then again I didn’t really watch that much cus again same thing lolll but every time I watch your videos I think I need to watch more because your videos are calm yet interesting, cozy yet exciting and it puts me in such a good mood for the day after watching your video at breakfast!!! The only I have in common is I am a housewife so I also like the getting chores done attitude! 😆😆😆
Hi, i read the scripture about head coverings. He was addressing the people who practiced a custom. With Christ being our mediator at His resurrection we go through Him not through ANYONE else when we pray. The covering is no longer needed.
there's about 6 mama vloggers I try to keep up with currently. You have become my #1 favorite lately. very fun. thank you for enjoyable content. i appreciate your dedication to your beautiful family and your OWN interests and aspirations! can't wait to follow you through-out your next journey of pregnancy and baby. :)
Who else do you follow? I love finding new mama vloggers!
@@PollyWannaCracker21 farmhouse on boone, this mama's house, Natalie Bennet, Michelle Reed, this golden hour. Allison bickerstaff is great too. Love her! And for some peaceful non mama vloggers "trout and coffee" & "Lou C".
I’ve been watching for a while and I love how your video style has grown. They are just so enjoyable to watch and continue to get better as you go 😊
Greetings from the middle of Nebraska. I so enjoy your videos!! So glad your OBGYN appt went well. Your patio has turned in to such a wonderful entertaining area. Back in my day growing up in a Catholic church and school we wore chapel veils at mass. If we forgot our veil, our nuns would bobby pin a kleenex on our heads. I loved wearing chapel veils. No longer required in our Catholic faith but some women still wear a head covering to mass. Your area is so beautiful for biking and walking. Your videos always bring joy to my day so thank you for taking us along!! The kiddos are darling!
I dont know what the video is about but i know I'll enjoy and learn something from you when i watch it!!! You are my good addiction:)
Thursday is my day off, and after work out, laundry, cooking, groceries I plan to sit down and enjoy!!!
I’m an Eastern Orthodox Christian and I have always covered my head.
Im not Mennonite but do headcover based on my own reading and conviction of scripture! I love Garlands of Grace!
You are a huge light and are here for such a time as this! Keep going strong. 💗
You look so pretty in white Meghan and your head covering. You inspire me to wear it more often not only when I’m praying! God will reward you for being the light in this world!!!
I miss going to agape! We'd go at like 230 so there wasn't usually a wait, but never went on a Saturday. I think it's great how busy they always are! Where we live now I haven't found anything like what's in Lancaster county. I miss living there 😔
It always feels like you are right in my kitchen with me. Love your patio and all that you are doing with it.
Loved this video -
Was just curious why are they / or this called ‘head covering’ when it’s not actually covering the head?
Seems it would be more appropriately called a “bun cover” ❤❤
You need to drink lots of water before a blood draw it makes it easier to find a vein have a blessed weekend 🙏 😊
Megan, I LOVE your videos! I'm a fellow Lancaster County native and can't believe I didn't find you sooner. I love when you show local places because I've been to so many of them :) (Griddle and Grind is amazing, btw) I grew up going to Mennonite school (I went to Kraybill Mennonite K-8) and I wore a head covering for a while in my late teens. God has taken me on such a unique journey and I don't have children yet (will be getting married in about 6-7 months!), but I have the desire to stay at home and raise children. Your videos are so inspiring when I think about my future, and I love the cozy reminders of how simple pleasures in life are the best.
Just an FYI that kombucha does have a slight alcohol content, so it's generally not recommended to drink while pregnant. Maybe you didn't drink the kombucha you poured in your video, but thought I would mention it just in case. :)
I’m a Muslim woman and proudly cover my hair as well! It’s great seeing my Christian sisters doing it as well.
Mashallah and salaam alaikum!
It is a tradition that I think is having a come back at least amongst Catholics, for most of our history women covered their head when attending church. It´s a beautiful tradition.
My cousin works at Ágape! Beautiful place. Love watching your videos. All my family lives around your area. Wish I could meet you in person. You seem like such a fun person!
Love watching your family grow
I like the way you explain the reason you wear your hair covering
I am of the Pentecostal faith and we do not cut or hair or trim it, we do not wear the hair covering but we do believe that the married woman should wear their hair up, stating that it’s for God and their husband!
Most of all I’m thankful to know about having a personal relationship with Jesus! That’s what’s really important and everything else will follow
May God bless you and your family
I use a lace scarf type of head cover and i love it it matches my hair color and blends in nicely whith what ever i wear
I love the Bible verse and the sunset at the end.
Fletcher is adorable! He’s growing up so much! And I always love seeing little Rio in the videos 🥰❤️ Praying for you and baby!
Oh my goodness! We were just in the Lancaster area a few days ago. Also went to Zinck's and Cocalico's. Great places to go.
The one you put on from Garlands of Grace looks so nice!
That's so funny cinnamon makes you think of crafts because it makes ME think of craft stores like Michael's or JoAnn Fabrics!! 😂😂 Memories of going in there with my mom when I was little. Love it. 🥰
Cranberries are SUPER easy to bake with! I have a cranberry pecan scone recipe that’s always a big hit!
I've seen that "For His Glory " store when we passed by and would love to stop in sometime.
I was looking into head coverings from your videos and I see how if you don't wear a wedding ring it would absolutely be something a married woman should do for me being someone who has another symbol for being married I don't feel I need to wear one. That being said there are a lot of times I do wear one because I was doing it consistently for about 2 weeks while I was looking into it and discovered a long list of practical reasons to wear them especially as a mom but yeah after studying the passage and and the history behind it that is just where I've landed on the subject for right now. When I wear them I made some that are like the second style you tried on out of some fabric scraps from my grandma
I ordered my first veils from Joyce's the other day! I went based off an old video of yours that you mentioned 7.5 by 8" I hope that size works for me!!
Hello dearest Megan! Always the most lovely, cheerful, God centred videos ever. ❤
Thankyou for representing a true Christian woman + sister in Christ.
Ive been praying about the head covering as mentioned in Corinthians also. Much thanks & Gods blessings xxx
I'm Catholic, and years ago, we had to wear them to church. Head must be covered. We called them Chaple Caps. Not many women wear them nowadays. However, more and more women are wearing them again.
That's interesting to hear. Because I know the headcovering movement is growing, didn't realize in Catholocism as well!
@@MeganFoxUnlockedYes, when I heard you talk about the " trad wife" trend in the past, I assumed you were talking about Catholics! In the 1960s, a lot of things were modernized in the Church, and among young people especially there's a movement towards reclaiming older Catholic traditions like having the service in Latin, covering heads, and so on. Those who take it to legalistic extremes get called "toxic trads". Interesting stuff!
@@MeganFoxUnlockedIn judiasm some women cover their hair after marriage be it head coverings. Scarves or even with wigs.
We make our own apple cider! My father-in-law has a cider press, and we've made it several years already!
I love this video! Your coverings are lovely and I’m so glad you are living out your convictions in the Lord 😊
I think you did an awesome job on the thumbnail, it's beautiful! I'm enjoying this video after finding the right one- by mistake, I started on one of yours from last year & kept thinking why does everyone look so much younger than I remember? I couldn't believe you cut the extension cord again, so I checked which video I was actually watching 😜
$13 here in Montana for the good cider! Ugh!
And the cinnamon stick smell 1000% always reminds me of my mom's fabric craft apples lol. I did not know other moms made those!
OMG. Greenchef should put Miller's little thumbs up segment in a commercial!! They better watch this.
That store was amazing!!
Hey Megan, I also am nervous everytime I have to have blood work done because they never find good veins on me 😭
My kids a older now (18, 16 and 12) but when the bigger two where little both my grandmas where still alive and the really got to enjoy quite a bit of their greatgrandchildren.
22:00 its about $10-$15 for a gallon of good, local cider. I would say that it’s 100% worth the cost compared to the grocery store stuff. I usually buy 2 gallons a year, a small price for an enjoyable treat
Enjoyed your video. You are doing such a great job. Would love to hear Josh's thoughts on the firepit and how he likes cooking on it. Thanks
Your videos really calm me
$7 for a gallon of cider at our local orchard in Central NY! Several orchards lots a lot of produce with late frosts this year. Costs are up, up, up!
Thank you for such a lovely video! How special that you had some mom-daughter time with your sweet angel! I am praying for you and baby and hope you are keeping well. Lots of blessings to you and yours! ☀️
I love watching your videos that one look like a lot of fun. Very blessed beautiful children. See you in the next video. I want to see your fall Decour have a blessed Thursday night.❤
Megan, you are a beautiful soul and I love your content so very much. Very talented with videos and sound!!! ❤
I’m Catholic and cover in Mass and the Adoration chapel. I’ve been praying and discerning covering full time. I love your veil style but I’m hesitating a bit. Maybe I’ll take a trip out to Joyce’s 😊
I love your videos!! You have a calmness and peace that is definitely from the Lord which calms me after a crazy day. Thank you!!
$5 a gallon at Daniels orchard outside farmersville in Lancaster!😊 outside of the touristy area 😏
I love Agave ! It’s so good there. I also love going to September Farms but I have to admit I haven’t been there since before Covid hit. Fox Meadow is close to me. I just love living in this area. Thank you for such wonderful videos I look forward to them every Thursday 😊
Drinking my coffee and watching your video. And following your journey.
This is my first pregnancy and I have been waking up at exactly 2:33 a.m every morning. Totally understand the sleep deprivation! 😂
Fun video:) I just paid $10 for a half of a gallon of Apple Cider in Missouri, so I think you are getting a good deal. Crazy to say, everything is so expensive these days!
You and Lynette Yoder have the two best channels going. #yourbiggestfan
I love all your fall decorations and all the good looking drinks you make ❤ looks so good
hey girl- loved the video! You are so fun!😀😉 yummy food. Glad the pregnancy is going well🥰
So it's ok to have your hair be seen through your veil?
My OBGYN has a sign by their scale that says You're a person not a number. Love that💕
It's the head that is to be covered, not the hair, as the hair is our glory.
Happy Birthday Evonnie. !!! Great video thanks for sharing
K, I am using your ending bible verse all week. I love it, so great to focus on.
Great video Megan thanks for sharing your family and beautiful Lancaster County.
