Paid a visit to [the Holy Infant](https://theparnassian.com/odna-iz-sviatyn-rima-chudotvornaia-statuia-mladentsa-iisusa-v-tserkvi-santa-mariia-in-aracheli-po-predaniiu-sdelana-iz-stvola-olivkovogo-dereva-iz-gefsimanskogo-sada-600-let-nazad-i-spo/?ref=theparnassian.com) in [Santa Maria in Aracoeli](https://theparnassian.com/vidite-pustuiu-nishu-v-verkhnei-chasti-fasada-tserkvi-santa-mariia-in-aracheli/?ref=theparnassian.com). Touching pilgrims go on bringing their notes, petitions for wishes granted and for healing, to the copy of the original stolen in 1984, while the genuine Infant, carved from Gethsemane wood, is kept in a secret room in the basement of some wealthy sorcerer, who is attempting to use the priceless relic to raise dead millionaires. But I am certain that this Infant, too, is capable of working miracles
