The saint
St VeronicaThe Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke tell of a woman who had suffered a chronic hemorrhage for twelve years, had spent what she had on physicians without being helped, and came up behind Christ in a crowd believing that merely touching the edge of his garment would heal her; when she did, her bleeding stopped at once, and Christ, aware that power had gone out from him, singled her out and spoke to her of the faith that had made her well.Read the life ›Questions
