Oil of the Holy Face of Jesus

The Oil is burned in France in an old oil lantern that belonged to Leo Depont. Read about the holy life of Leo Dupont HERE. It is then burned in front of the relic of the Veil of Veronica, an icon of the Holy Face and relics of Leo Depont and St. Margaret Mary Alacoque.

Tradition has it that Saint Veronica broke through the mob to console Jesus while He was carrying the cross,  She took off her headdress of fine Egyptian linen and handed it to Jesus to wipe His face of sweat, mud, spittle, and blood. He gave it back to her with His august image impressed on it. His imprint detailed the marks of the fingers of the cruel men who gave the sacrilegious blows. This encounter is represented on the sixth Station of the Cross.
