Milagros

Doubtless you´ve seen milagros, the little silver charms that people put near saints and statues for a special intention. Here are some in a case with Jesus. They are of all shapes and sizes.

Most of these look really old. I don´t know why some of them are so large. Maybe a really big problem?
Every church has a really gory statue of Jesus in a case like this. They take it out during Holy Week for processions. This one is in the Cathedral in Puebla, and is full of Milagros. Jesus looks very European usually.
