“Going into the house (over which the star had halted), the Magi saw the child with Mary his mother, and they fell down and worshipped him” (Mt 2:11) "He who is able to kneel before the Eucharist, who receives the Lord's body cannot fail to be attentive, in the ordinary course of the days, to situations unworthy of man, and is able to bend down personally to attend to need, is able to break his bread with the hungry, share water with the thirsty, clothe the naked, visit the sick and imprisoned," .... Pope Benedict in Anconna, 12 Sept 2011
