During the Prague tour, the guide took us to the Church of the Virgin Mary the Victorious, although a visit to the Kostel Panny Marie Vítězné a Pražské Jezulátko was not included in the program of the city walk. Apparently, Yaroslav herself really wanted to visit this place with good energy and aura in order to say a prayer in front of the image of the Prague baby and make a good wish. For which we are very grateful to her: she introduced our mini-group to a good cause. The specifics of the richly decorated church are such that services are held every hour in different languages: Czech, German, French, Spanish, Italian. We had a service in English. The church was full on Sunday afternoon. We quietly and delicately approached the altar to see the famous baby Jesus and read a prayer in Russian (on the leaves there are prayers addressed to Ezulatko and the Virgin Mary, in a variety of languages). If you have the opportunity, come here by all means! At the same time, you will see gifts from different countries: the outfits of the baby Jesus – a wax figurine presented to the church by the Spanish Princess Polixena in the middle of the XVII century – and find out what each color of the robe symbolizes, dedicated to a certain religious holiday. A very atmospheric church, unique in its own way
