There are not many Protestant denominations that acknowledge wearing a veil and practice it. The Plymouth Brethren, headquartered in Plymouth, England, are known as a denomination that recognizes women’s veil.<ref>{{인용|url= https://plymouthbrethren.org/article/443|title=The Head Covering―A Biblical Perspective―The True Women's Lib|publisher=|website=Plymouth brethren Writings|date=|author=J Boyd Nicholson Sr.|quote=}}</ref> Among the Anabaptists in the United States, the Mennonites let female members wear bonnet-shaped hats or veils based on 1 Corinthians 11, but they leave it up to individuals.<ref>{{인용|url=https://www.themennonitemom.com/post/difference-between-amish-and-mennonites|title=about the Amish and Mennonites|publisher=The Mennonite mom| quote= |date=April 4, 2019}}</ref> The female Amish, a part of the Mennonites, keep long hair and always wear a hood around their heads.<ref>{{인용 |title=Why do Amish men have beards but no mustaches? |website= |publisher=All about the Amish: Answers to Common Questions  |date=March 2, 2021 |year= |author= |page= |series= |isbn= |quote= }}</ref>

In the [[World Mission Society Church of God]], men wear nothing on their heads and women wear veils on their heads during worship according to the teachings of the Bible. The Church of God has restored the truth of the new covenant, which Jesus Christ preached and the apostles kept 2,000 years ago, and so the church keeps the regulation of women’s veil as a part of the regulations of the early Church.<ref>{{인용|url=http://jmagazine.joins.com/monthly/view/318953|title=[Special Feature ● Luther's 500 Years of Religious Reformation – Church of God and Truth in the Bible] What are they believing and practicing? |website= |publisher=Monthly JoongAng |date=November 17, 2017|author=|quote=}}</ref> The church teaches that the regulations of women’s veil is established and proclaimed by God, not made up by men.<ref>Joo Cheol Kim, Covenant and Commandment, Melchizedek Pub.

{{quote|The Church of God strongly believes that they practice the teachings of the Bible. They believe in God the Father and God the Mother according to the Bible, and keep all the seven feasts, including the New Covenant Passover, the Sabbath, the regulation of wearing a veil, and so on, just like the original Church of God 2,000 years ago.| <big>''Monthly JoongAng''</big>, December 2017 <ref>{{Cite web |url=https://jmagazine.joins.com/monthly/view/318952 |title= [Special Feature ● Luther's 500 Years of Religious Reformation - Church of God and Truth in the Bible] 2.7 Million World Mission Society Church of God Saints' 'Grand Chorus' |website= |publisher=Monthly JoongAng |date=November 17, 2017}}</ref>}}

“As I mentioned earlier, our faith is based on the Bible. The Bible teaches that men do not cover their heads but women do during worship. That is the way the early Church did. 1 Corinthians 11 records the regulations of veil in detail. Unfortunately, as 2,000 years have passed by, in this day and age many churches today go against the teachings of the Bible even from this small point; women do not cover their heads during worship, or male priests put something on their heads to hold mass. If Apostles Peter, John, and Paul come in this age and see the situation, they will surely say that the only church the same as theirs is the Church of God.”| <big>''Monthly Chosun''</big>, March 2020 <ref>{{Cite web |url=http://monthly.chosun.com/client/news/viw.asp?ctcd=E&nNewsNumb=202003100052 |title= [Religious Tour Interview] World Mission Sociey Church of God General Pastor Joo-Cheol Kim |website= |publisher=Monthly Chosun |date=March 2020 }}</ref>}}
