Maria Bambinella Statue

Holy Mother Church celebrates the birthday of Our Blessed Mother Mary on the 8th September each year, but rarely have we seen her as a little child.

The miraculous image of Maria Bambinella was made prior to 1730 by a Franciscan nun who afterwards entrusted the image to others.  In 1856 the Sisters of Charity at Lovere, Italy, were asked to take over the management of the Hospital of Ciceri in Milan and in 1876 this waxen image was carried to their Mother House where it has remained ever since.

The beautiful image of Maria Bambinella was exposed for veneration for the first time on the 8th September, the Feast of Mary's Nativity.  A certain Sister Josephine Woinovich was bedridden due to paralysis and a novice, Giulia Macario was seriously ill.  On the 8th of September they begged the Mother General to get the image of Maria Bambinella.  They prayed to her and the following day, both were immediately and miraculously cured.

Blessed Child Mary, destined to be the Mother of God and our loving Mother, by the heavenly graces you lavish upon us, mercifully listen to my supplications.  In the needs which press upon me from every side and in my present tribulation, I place all my trust in you. Amen.  Hail Mary...
