Saint Veronica

[CyrilSebastian]

The account of Saint Veronica is thought to be derived from Historia ecclesiastica written 312-0314 by Eusebius of Caesarea.

[CyrilSebastian]

In France, Veronica was reportedly married to the convert Zaccheus the tax collector. (Luke 19: 1-10)

[CyrilSebastian]

From The Prayer to Saint Veronica:   
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.

[CyrilSebastian]

A source in which we learn about St. Veronica comes from the apocryhal Acts of Pilate. From this, we first learn of her name.
