Antonio de Segovia donated the sacred image of Our Lady, and it was first placed in a very simple hermitage with a flat roof made of palms. Sometime later a larger, more accomodating Chapel was built. In those days, the image was not encased in an arch or protected in any way.<br />Around 1608 or 1609, this small Chapel, by now very old, fell into ruins. Time and weather against it, the little Chapel collapsed. Br. Herrera collected signed testimonies from witnesses, who solemnly declared that the Chapels roof, due to its antiquity, caved in, destroying everything inside of it, except the sacred image of Our Lady.<br />At the sound of the roof crashing, the Indians ran to the Chapel fearing that the collapsed roof might have damaged the statue of Our Lady or even worse, possibly destroyed it. At first, they found, to their deep remorse, that the beams had crashed onto the Altar, smashing it to pieces; but their sadness soon turned into joy, as they hurriedly moved the rubble and found the Sacred Image completely untouched and unharmed, as beautiful as ever. The statue was there, as if waiting for them, in its original place, while everything else was broken and ruined around it. They testified that not even the dust dared to touch the statues vestments.<br />Fr. Justicia added to the testimony that to confound even the greatest skeptic and add to the miraculous wonder, the main beam came down vertically, and settled above the tabernacle, forming a cross beam, which in turn would serve as a protective arch defending the Treasure below and their most precious statue. The Indians prostrated themselves, offering praise and thanksgiving for the miracle, which saved the Eucharist and their statue of the Blessed Mother, without which it would have been completely destroyed.</p>...807885Our Lady of Zapopan108108https://www.gandhi.com.mx/our-lady-of-zapopan-1/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/906171/95e0ad94-f027-482f-99fb-ee9ad631b3dc.jpg?v=638336710969500000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20119781458034458_W3siaWQiOiI0NTg2YWJhZS04MDhjLTRkNGYtODNlYS0wNjE4NWMwMzcxZjUiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjEwOCwiZGlzY291bnQiOjAsInNlbGxpbmdQcmljZSI6MTA4LCJpbmNsdWRlc1RheCI6dHJ1ZSwicHJpY2VUeXBlIjoiSXBwIiwiY3VycmVuY3kiOiJNWE4iLCJmcm9tIjoiMjAyNC0wNS0xN1QxODowMDowMFoiLCJyZWdpb24iOiJNWCIsImlzUHJlb3JkZXIiOmZhbHNlfV0=9781458034458_<p>Fr.
