The Holy Child

The Infant Jesus of Prague is a 16th-century Roman Catholic wax-coated wooden statue of child Jesus holding a globus cruciger, located in the Carmelite Church of Our Lady Victorious in Malá StranaPrague,Czech Republic. Pious legends state that the statue once belonged to Saint Teresa of Avilaand allegedly holds miraculous powers, especially among expectant mothers.
The church is kind of hidden of the main and more crowded streets of Prague. I went to visit this statue of the Holy Child and offer my prayers of intercession for all families.

After my visit I went accross the street from the shrine a had a good capuchino- delicious :-)
