The statue of the Infant Jesus of Prague is more than 400 years old. It reflects the God´s incarnation, spiritual childhood and the dignity of both Christ´s and our own humanity. In 1655 the statue was crowned by the Bishop of Prague. The number of miracles and prayers answered continued to rise. Veneration of the Prague Infant Jesus is a spiritual extension of Christmas. We bow down to Christ embodied. We profess that God took onto Himself human form and recognise that childhood is part of it. “God made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant being made in human likeness…” (Phil 2,7). Jesus Christ experiences complete human life, from beginning to end. In His conception, birth, and childhood we meet the real God, as well as in his adulthood, death, and resurrection.
