According to Tradition, Saint Veronica was the woman with the issue of blood, who received healing by touching the hem of Christ’s robe (Mt. 9:20).
Troparion — Tone 8
The image of God was truly preserved in you, O Mother, / For you took up the Cross and followed Christ. / By so doing, you taught us to disregard the flesh, for it passes away, / But to care instead for the soul, since it is immortal. / Therefore your spirit, O Holy Mother Veronica, rejoices with the Angels!
