Stations of the Cross – Sixth Station

Veronica wipes the face of Jesus

We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you
Because by your holy cross you have redeemed the world.

Scripture

“A faithful friend is a sturdy shelter; He who finds one finds a treasure.
A faithful friend is beyond price, No sum can balance the person’s worth.”

A Prayer

“Lord, what you ask is hard.
It calls for courage and self-sacrifice,
and I am weak.
Please, give me strength.
Don’t let me run away because of fear.

Lord, live in me
and act in me
and love in me.
And not in me alone – in all of us –
so that we may reveal
no more your bloody but your glorious
face on earth.”
