Prayers and Devotions
Novenas
The Novena to the Infant Jesus of Prague celebrates the “Child of God”— the great mystery of the Incarnation. The child in all of us believes in the humanity and divinity of Christ and rejoices in God’s caring and protective love for us. The Infant reminds us that God is holding us in the palm of His hand. Devotees are encouraged to reflect on the virtues exemplified by the Infant Jesus, such as humility and obedience.
The image of the Infant Jesus is a reminder of the importance of childlike faith and trust in God. Catholics are encouraged to approach God with the innocence, trust, and simplicity of a child. The list of blessings attributed by devotees of the Infant Jesus is endless: health restored, financial problems solved, gifts of peace of mind and soul, and innumerable healings, both physical and spiritual. God has been astonishingly generous in blessing those who have been devoted to his Infant Son.
The devotion to the Infant of Prague, the Holy Child Jesus, traces back to the 17th century. This devotion is a veneration of our Lord’s sacred Infancy, marked by the introduction of a statue portraying the Infant Jesus. This statue was given to the Discalced Carmelites residing in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, where it still remains. Many believers travel worldwide to pay homage to the Holy Infant. In His left hand, the Infant Jesus holds a miniature globe topped by a cross, representing His kingship over the world. His right hand is raised in blessing, with two fingers bent to reflect Christ’s divine and human nature, and the other three fingers raised to symbolize the unity of the Trinity.
Many saints had a very strong devotion to the Divine Child, notably St. Therese of the Child Jesus, St. Francis of Assisi, St. Anthony of Padua, and St. Teresa of Avila. Numerous individuals who have appealed to the Infant Jesus report instances of receiving graces, blessings, favors, and miraculous healings.
