Ancient murals of robed monks from past centuries decorate the interior of Cuernavaca's Cathedral of the Assumption. They tell the story of Felipe de Jesus and the 26 monks sailed with four other monks to Manila. A storm blew their boat to Japan, where they were martyred. Felipe de Jesus is Mexico's first saint. © Anthony Wright, 2009
