. and at that same instant had imprinted on itself, miraculously, a vivid image of the now-resurrected Jesus. Saint John speaks of it in his Gospel: When Peter went into the tomb, he saw linen wrappings lying there, and the cloth that had been on Jesus head, not lying with the linen wrappings but rolled up in a place by itself. Better yet, by means of the dozens of color pictures in this book, you, too, can encounter this miraculous cloth, and finally gaze reverently on the face of the living Christ Himself! This small veil now known as the Holy Face of Manoppello absorbed the very first new breath of the Risen Christ . Tradition says that Our Lady herself laid this cloth on His face before He was wrapped in His shroud for burial. Modern scholars have confirmed that this image corresponds perfectly in all its measurements to the face of the dead Christ on the more famous Shroud of Turin.

Unlike the Shroud, however, the Holy Face of Manoppello shows not the grim visage of a dead man with eyes closed, but the lively face of the living Christ, His eyes wide open, piercing us with their gaze. In the decade since then, tens of thousands of other pilgrims have followed in the Pope's footsteps, making the trek to central Italy to meet Jesus face-to-face. Too easily we skeptical moderns dismiss the authenticity of relics, particularly relics of the kinds that have often been forged. In 2006, Pope Benedict made a pilgrimage to Manoppello to pray before this image. The Holy Veil of Manoppello - The Human Face of God The horrific 1915 earthquake that levelled tiny Manoppello, Italy, brought forth from the local church's rubble one of Christendom's long-lost, but most precious relics: the small cloth that lay on Jesus's face in the tomb. The author here cites so many reliable sources about relics of Christ’s Passion that you will put down these pages with doubts about your doubts, and find in yourself a new and growing desire to look upon them yourself and to receive the many graces that - as Wall also reports here - regularly flow from them for the benefit of souls.
