At St John Church in Siem Reap, Cambodia

The very little Jesus of Bethlehem: it is him whom the world is missing. And if we find him, we will have sweetness and littleness and love… Pride will break before the crèche… One must truly bend over to understand and love such a little child.
Little Sister Magdeleine (1898–1989)
