I cannot say for sure. I don't have any documentation on that, and I have not tested the mileage. I have driven the bus a total of less than 200 miles since I purchased it 2 years ago.

If I were to guess, I would say somewhere around 8 MPG.

How many miles to the gallon does the Dreamer get?

Before I read your reply I went back and looked at the photo again and did notice the head covering. I was going to make this known, but you had already answered my query. I think Kristin is very courageous, and I believe that she is a very powerful witness to the people around her and to the angelic host looking on.

To further help you identify the headcovering, Kristin's hair would be down nearly to her waist if she let it down. She puts her hair up in a bun, and is wearing a black headcovering that covers the back of her head.

I have never tried to establish rigid requirements on what style of headcovering should be worn, or how much of the hair must be covered, as I have not found this information in the Bible.

It is quickly apparent to those around my daughter, that she is wearing a headcovering, for people turn their heads, and walk around, when visiting with others. Kristin's headcovering is noticed by a great many people, for I see their reactions.

I do have a teaching on this topic in the Q&A section of the Heart4God website. In it I do share that the New Testament mentions only that a woman must have her head covered when praying or prophesying. Some, like my daughter, believe that they should wear it all the time. In truth she is likely to be called upon to pray or prophesy at any time.

May you be blessed with peace and understanding in these days.

My daughter Kristin began wearing a headcovering at the age of 14. This is a practice she continues until this day. She wears the headcovering all the time. I have never seen her without the headcovering in the past 8-9 years, as she puts it on when she gets out of bed in the morning.

Due to the angle of the photo in this post, it is hard to see the headcovering on Kristin's head, but she was wearing one. In case, you are unfamiliar with which person sitting at the table is my daughter, she is the one on the left.

May you be blessed with peace and understanding in these days.

Your teaching on authority and the importance of head coverings deeply impacted on my life. I tried to share the truth of this with the people in my community and was openly ridiculed. Head coverings are associated with oppression and servitude which western women despise. I believe Kristin at one point in her life practiced head covering. Does she now believe it is merely a cultural practice, or only needs to be worn in "church" settings? Have your beliefs on this practice changed also?
