VI Veronica wipes Jesus’s face.
Veronica had the courage to help Jesus on the Way of the Cross, and to comfort Him; this gesture could have cost her her life. Through service, we can also help ease the pain of Jesus and see His face in our neighbor.
Prayer for the Sixth Station
Let us take a moment to reflect on the extraordinary strength of these women, our sisters, who, even with their own suffering, find the strength to hold out their hands and console others. Dear Lord, we pray for our suffering sisters who know Your love and consolation. May their example inspire us to stretch out our hand to those who are in pain, and to wipe their tears. Amen.
Prayer by Sister Christine Joseph, religious sister in India
