Anali awiri m'mawa ndipo Namwali wa ku Ocotlán adatsikanso kuchokera ku kachidindo kake kuti akapembedzedwe ndi anthu a Tlaxcala. Kulimbikira kutembenukira m'misewu ndikuyamba ulendowu kuti kwa maola ambiri udzaphimbidwa ndi masamba ndi mapemphero.
Kuphatikizika kwa mabelu kunalengeza Mass yoyamba mwa asanu ndi anayi. Pakati pa m'mawa, ndinayamba kusangalala ndi chiwonetsero chachikulu cha Baroque ku Tlaxcala: Tchalitchi cha Ocotlán, chomwe chili pamtunda wa mphindi 15 kuchokera ku Plaza de la Constitución, pakatikati pa mzindawu.
Titafika ku atrium ya tchalitchi, makalapeti opangidwa ndi manja opangidwa ndi utoto, omwe ndi gawo la zikondwerero zofunika kwambiri mdziko muno, anali atakonzeka. Mariachis adayamba kuyimba kwawo kuti, mwa anthu mazana ambiri, sakanatha mpaka Namwaliyu atabwerera kukachisi wake.
Chikondwererochi, malinga ndi mbiri yakale, chimayamba ndikuwonekera kwa Namwali mu 1541, pomwe Juan Diego Bernardino, akuyenda pamadzi kupita ku Mtsinje wa Zahuapan, akudabwa ndi mawu ndi chithunzi chomwe chidaperekedwa pamaso pake. Atafunsidwa chifukwa chomwe amanyamula madzi ambiri, Juan Diego adayankha kuti ndi a odwala, chifukwa nthomba inali kugunda anthu. Chifukwa chake, Namwaliyo amamuuza komwe ayenera kukatenga madzi kuti awachiritse.
Nthanoyo imanenanso kuti pambuyo pa kugunda kwamphamvu kwa mphezi komwe kudagwera paphiripo, moto udabuka mu umodzi mwa mitengo ya ocote, itazimitsidwa, chithunzi cha Namwali chidatuluka phulusa. Chifukwa chake, fanolo lidabweretsedwa pamaso pa ma friars aku Franciscan, ndipo pambuyo pake, mukuyenda, kupita ku tchalitchi chaching'ono pomwe Saint Lawrence amapembedzedwa. Nthawi yomweyo, gulu lidatsitsa woyera ndikumukweza Namwaliyo ku njira yake yatsopano. Sacristan, wokwiya chifukwa woyera wa kudzipereka kwake adatsitsidwa, adadikirira usiku ndikumubwezeretsanso m'malo mwake. Tsiku lotsatira, Namwaliyo anali atabwerera m'chipinda cham'mwamba. Mbiri idadzibwereza yokha, ngakhale bambo atabweretsa fanolo kunyumba kuti apewe zivute zitani kuti Namwali adalowa m'malo mwa guwa la San Lorenzo. Onse adanena kuti ntchitoyi idachitidwa ndi angelo ndipo ndi mwanjira iyi pomwe sacristan adalandira Namwali wa Ocotlán.

Akangopemphera, kulira ndikupereka maluwa kapena nsembe, omwe apatsidwa kunyamula ndi kuteteza Namwaliyo paulendo wonsewo, kukonzekera ntchito yovutayi.

Pamapeto pa ulendowo, mvula idawoneka ndipo aliyense adayenda atakwera phirilo, ndikuchotsa kukayika pakudzipereka kwawo. Njirayo, yomwe idadziwika kale yodzaza ndi mitundu, ngati chotengera madzi adasungunuka, mphindi zochepa kutha kwa ntchitoyo.
