Nine Days with the Divine Child Jesus. Trust in His Tender Mercy.

The devotion to the Divine Child Jesus — the Christ Child in His infancy — is one of the most tender and beloved in the Catholic tradition. It reminds us that God came to us not as a conquering king, but as a helpless infant, completely dependent on human love and care. The Divine Child Jesus is venerated especially in Colombia, where the famous image of the Divine Child of the 20th of July has drawn millions of pilgrims and countless miraculous favors.

This beautifully laminated Kilgarlin novena card invites you into nine days of prayer with the Divine Child Jesus, finished with gold color accents and crafted for daily devotion. Bring your intentions to the Child Jesus with the simplicity and trust of a child — He never turns away those who come to Him with humble hearts.

The Novena Prayer

Divine Child Jesus, I believe in Your love for me. I trust in Your mercy and goodness. I come before You as a little child, placing all my needs and intentions in Your loving hands. You who said "Let the little children come to me," receive me now with all my weakness and need. Grant me the grace I seek, if it be Your holy will, and above all, grant me the grace to love You more each day and to trust in Your divine providence in all things. Divine Child Jesus, bless me and keep me close to Your Sacred Heart. Amen.

A Mission Behind Every Card

ShopCatholic was founded by Shawn Kilgarlin — wife, mother of four, mental health clinician, and life coach. Every Christmas Eve, Shawn donates thousands of gifts to those in need through Holy Angels. She volunteers at addiction treatment centers, offering grounding boxes and group classes. Her children, Loyola University students, and local high school students help make gift bags for families in need — all funded from her own heart. When you purchase a Kilgarlin prayer card, you're participating in that mission of giving.
