The Prayer of Humble Access is the name traditionally given to a prayer originally from early Anglican Books of Common Prayer and contained in many Anglican, Methodist, Presbyterian, and other Christian eucharistic liturgies, including use by the personal ordinariates for former Anglican groups reconciled to the Catholic Church.
Jesus healing the servant of a Centurion, by the Venetian artist Paolo Veronese, 16th century. Healing the centurion's servant is one of the miracles performed by Jesus of Nazareth as related in the Gospel of Matthew [1] and the Gospel of Luke [2] (both part of the Christian biblical canon). The story is not recounted in the Gospels of either ...
Luke has the men return to find the servant healed while Matthew has Jesus performing the miracle itself.

At the time the area was ruled by Herod Antipas, not directly under Roman rule, so one question is why a Roman Centurian would be present.
