The tradition of Blessing the Bambinelli was first instituted by St. John Paul II. On the Third Sunday of Advent, the children of Rome are encouraged to bring the baby Jesus (Bambinelli) from each of their Nativity sets to St. Peter’s Square for the Pope to bless the figurines. This Advent tradition is a way for children to connect their Nativity scene at home to the celebration of Christmas at their Church.

The Third Sunday of Advent, December 11th at the 11:30am Mass, you are invited to bring the Baby Jesus figurines from your home Nativity set to St. Matthew for this special blessing.

La tradición de bendecir al "Bambinelli" fue primero instituida por St. John Paul II. En el Tercer Domingo de Adviento los niños de Roma traen al Nino Jesus ( Bambinelli) de sus pesebres de Navidad, a la plaza de St. Pedro para que el Papa bendiga las estatuillas. Esta tradición de Adviento es una manera para que los niños unan el pesebre de Navidad de sus hogares a la celebración en sus Iglesias.

El Tercer Domingo de Adviento, 11 de Diciembre, en la Misa de la 1:00pm, están invitados a traer sus estatuillas del pesebre de Navidad a St. Matthew para esta bendición especial.
