    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 compassion for them as she did for You. Show me how to wipe 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.+

    Saint Veronica pray, pray for us all, All; pray there be clean soft linens to absorb what blood, sweat and tears discomfort us through all our years; pray when we enter a Holy Environment there be those such as thee to comfort and free; pray that to any suffering may helpful aid come offering; pray healing and Heaven be unto us soon; pray we walk quickly and well our steps towards that Throne from which flows all healing the world's ever known, Amen
