St. Veronica is known for having served Christ on his way to Calvary and his image appeared on her cloth. We are reminded to treat people with utmost respect and kindness because as we do for others we do for Him!
O My Jesus, Saint Veronica served You
on the way to Calvary by wiping Your
beloved face with a towel on which Your
sacred image then appeared.
She protected this treasure,
and whenever people touched it, they
were miraculously healed.
I ask her to pray for the growth of my
ability to see Your sacred image in
others, to recognize their hurts,
to stop and join them on their difficult
journeys, and to feel the same compas-
sion for them as she did for You.
She me how to wife their faces, serve
their needs, and heal their wounds,
reminding me that as I do this for them,
I also do this for You.
Saint Veronica, pray for me.
Amen.
