Baby Jesus

It is customary in Malta that an image of baby Jesus is placed on the main altar, right in the middle, between the candlesticks, floral decorations and sometimes statuettes of the apostles. These are just a few I visited this morning at the town of Rabat. I also witnessed a spectacular Neapolitan Nativity at the Mdina cathedral, and that will be featured on Monday.

This baby Jesus was made from wax and was placed at a side-altar at Rabat church.
