You have seen this Baby Jesus before in a few posts over the
past two weeks. This is the Baby Jesus I grew up with, and so my imagination of
what Baby Jesus looked liked was always the image of this face, a statue made
from paper-mache which is placed every year at the main altar of my childhood
church of St. Julian’s.
A week ago, the baby was lying on his side, but now he
has been placed standing on a rock, which gives a much better visibility, as
you can see from these photos. The cross below him is a part of the tabernacle,
and it gives a perspective of what was to come to dear Jesus within 33 years of
his birth.
