In this March 5, 2017 photo, a statue of Saint Judas Thaddeus, left, sands next to the Death Saint, or “Santa Muerte”, inside niches at Mercy Church on the edge of Mexico City's Tepito neighborhood. As veneration of Santa Muerte becomes more accepted, shrines can also be found in the back of all kinds of stores and gas stations. (Photo by Marco Ugarte/AP Photo)
