El Camino de la Madrina

The Godmother Path

A private mentorship with Priestess Sandra. You are formed in the ways of La Santa Muerte, and at the end you are presented to Her with Sandra as your Madrina, your godmother for life.

Meet your Madrina

Priestess Sandra has served La Santa Muerte since childhood, caring for the poor, the hungry, and the rejected. As your Madrina, she walks beside you for three months of formation, then presents you to La Santísima herself. The bond does not end there. She remains your godmother for life.

You choose what you learn.

Choose 3 teachings from the menu below. Your group sessions follow what the five devotees chose most, and your private sessions follow your own questions and your own life.
