Devotion to the Infant Jesus of Prague

[Prie dieu]

My mother called me up from work just now and told me one of her residents (she's a caretaker for the elderly in assisted housing) had given her a medal and novena pamphlet to the Infant of Prague to give to me.  Besides asking you all to keep the woman in your prayers! I would also like to ask what exactly this devotion is like etc.?

A great Carmelite devotion! Here is the official website of the Shrine from the Czech Republic (in English):

This is what I recomended to voxclamantis to get help for the website. She should have the infant of Prague at the top of the forum page.

The Infant Jesus of Prague helps me out of financial difficulties.  :pray:

Turns out the medal was a Saint Benedict medal.  I don't know if I'll keep it attached to the cord of my Miraculous Medal or attach it to my rosary.. but the prayer card for a 9-hour novena seems interesting.  I assume it's basically a perpetual novena?
