Saint Josemaría was chaplain of the Saint Elizabeth Foundation in Madrid and also looked after the enclosed Augustinian nuns of the Monastery Royal. Today he wrote: “On my way out of the cloister they showed me, in the vestibule, a Christ Child which was a darling. I have never seen a better-looking Baby Jesus! Totally captivating. They uncovered it. He has his little arms crossed on his breast and his eyes half open. Beautiful. I ate him up with kisses, and would have loved to kidnap him.”
