St. Faustina's Way of the Cross

STATION 6: Veronica Wipes the Face of Jesus

We adore You, O Christ, and we praise You (or: We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You.)

BECAUSE BY YOUR HOLY CROSS, YOU HAVE REDEEMED THE WORLD.

Stations of the Cross, 6th Station, Veronica wipes the face of Jesus

A Reading from the Book of the Prophet Isaiah

(Isaiah 53: 2-3)

Jesus: (celebrant reads)

Know that whatever good you do to any soul, I accept it as if you had done it to Me (1768). 

St. Faustina: (all read)

I am learning how to be good from Jesus, from Him who is goodness itself, so that I may be called a [child] of the heavenly Father (669). Great love can change small things into great ones, and it is only love which lends value to our actions (303).

Christ's Agony in the Garden painting by Carlo Dolci, Stations of the Cross
Feet of Jesus, Divine Mercy painting

All Read:

Lord Jesus, my Master, grant that my eyes, my hands, my lips, and my heart may always be merciful. Transform me into mercy.

Celebrant Reads:

You, who suffered wounds for us, 

All Read:

Christ Jesus, have mercy on us.

Stabat Mater

Bruised, derided, cursed, defiled,
She beheld her tender Child,
All with bloody scourges rent.
