2d Sunday after Epiphany

The original shrine in Prague has a website here, which is, alas for the anglophone, in Czech. There's an English version here but it doesn't seem to be quite as comprehensive as the Czech site. (But then, how would I know? I don't have a word of Czech and that forest of diacritical marks is intimidating enough that I am fairly confident that I never shall.)
There is another somewhat shorter explanation of the devotion here.
The Infant of Prague devotion has its origins in the Discalced Carmelite Order but has now spread so widely that many people are unaware of the connection. The devotion has great significance to monarchists and I have often seen it associated with the pro-life movement among Catholics.
