Entrance Antiphon [ Gal 6:14 ]
May I never boast of anything but the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ! Through it, the world has been crucified to me and I to the world.

Collect
Almighty God, you made Saint Veronica glorious by the wounds of the passion of your Son. Through her example and prayers may we become like Christ, humbly embracing the cross so that we may rejoice in the revelation of his glory, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.

Prayer over the Offerings
Lord God, accept the gifts we offer you in honor of Saint Veronica. Help us so to venerate the mystery of the sufferings of your Son, that our lives may ever be conformable to it. We ask this through Christ our Lord.

Communion Antiphon [ Mt 16:24 ]
If anyone wishes to come after me he must renounce himself, take up his cross, and follow me, says the Lord.

Prayer after Communion
Lord, we have received the divine Sacrament, the perpetual memorial of the death of your Son. Grant us always to remain close to Christ and to work in the Church for the salvation of all men. We ask this through Christ our Lord.
