Church of the Infant Jesus

"Sixty-four years after it was built by group of 100 eager parishioners, the Infant Jesus of Prague mission church is closing its doors.

In 1942 a group, led by summer resident Dr. Charles Brusch (who later became personal physician to president John F. Kennedy), decided to build the church at the outskirts of Main Street to look “like a miniature Roman Catholic cathedral,” according to a commemorative history of Brookline booklet published in 1969.
