Stations VI: Veronica Wipes the Face of Jesus
In this bronze sculpture, Veronica steps forward to offer her veil to Jesus, seeking to wipe the sweat and blood from His face as He endures the agonizing journey with the Cross. Jesus, moved by her compassion, accepts the gesture. Miraculously, when He returns the veil to her, His true image is imprinted on the cloth. The bronze sculpture of the Stations of the Cross captures this profound act of compassion and the miraculous encounter between Veronica and Jesus along the Via Dolorosa.
The Veronica Wipes the Face of Jesus sculpture serves as a timeless reminder of the power of compassion, the impact of simple acts of kindness, and the transformative nature of faith in the face of adversity. It inspires individuals to embody these virtues in their own lives, fostering a more compassionate and supportive community.

Veronica’s selfless act of offering her veil to Jesus, despite the risks involved, reflects the power of simple acts of kindness and compassion towards those who are suffering.

Secondly, the miraculous imprint of Jesus’ face on Veronica’s veil symbolizes the idea of divine intervention and unexpected outcomes.
