VIRGIN DE JUQUILA
The VIRGIN OF JUQUILA was given to my mother by my grandmother when she came to the United States. My grandmother gave it to my mother to cross the border safely and to do well in this country. A few years later my mother returned to Mexico with me and when I arrived in the United States she gave me to the Virgin so that I would be well. My mother told me that whenever you were in difficult times read the prayer that was on the back so that the Virgin of Juquila would help me. Our Lady is important to me and my family because when we are in difficult times, she helps us with her miracles. When I have my children I am going to give them the Virgin of Juquila, I am going to teach them how to use it so that the Virgin is always with them and always takes care of them.
