The Lord Jesus Christ, who represents the Holy Cross, is the patron saint of this community, since the inhabitants say that in the fields of Quilehtla there were constantly nopales in the form of a cross, so it was decided that Quilehtla would previously bear the name of Santa Cruz. It is precisely on May 3, the day of the Holy Cross, when the construction workers (popularly known as "masons") are also celebrated, who do not work on that day and faithfully go to visit the patron saint of that place.
