When Roberto returns home an tells Carlos he didn't make the congregation pay for the statue of St. Christopher and Jesus, Carlos is upset until Roberto explains what happened that Christmas Eve.This story revolves around Roberto's experience on Christmas Eve, as he lost his way in a storm, while taking a St. Christopher to an isolated village.
