Morelia, Michoacán.- Considered as ‘the patron saint of lost, difficult or impossible causes’, San Judas Tadeo is one of the saints with more devotees and this has caused that there are records of some road affectations by the Paseo de la Reforma in the CDMX.
Every 28th of the month the devotees of San Judas Tadeo go to the Temple of San Hipólito and Casiano, located in the Cuauhtémoc mayor’s office, so the passage of the vehicular influx and passers-by through the area has been reduced.
This is how citizens who go to their schools, jobs or the metro stop, have had to contemplate this situation to avoid arriving late at their destination.

Although there are still no cuts in road traffic, according to information from the Road Orientation Center (COVIAL) of the Secretariat of Citizen Security of Mexico City (SSC-CDMX), there are already light settlements, so they have had to propose road alternatives, in addition to the assistance of a traffic personnel in the vicinity of the temple was requested to safeguard the integrity of the attendees as well as to avoid traffic jams or possible accidents.
The reason why every 28th of the month there are parishioners on their way to the temple is because, although the patronal feast is October 28 because it is the date on which believers remember the murder of the apostles St. Jude Thaddeus and St. Simon, they will thank their help or ask for more favors.
