Durango, Durango - http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/05208c.htm
(the City and State are but 2 refractions,
the Archdiocese of Durango being yet another)

likewise Zacatecas is also a Diocese
http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/15740a.htm

"On the hill known as the Bufa, on the outskirts of Zacatecas, 
is the venerated sanctuary of Nuestra Senora de los Remedios."

(I still couldn't find the Monte el Refugio, but
Nuestra Senora de los Remedios is nice in itself)

---while on the Christian motif,

Ewball Oust - Jubilaus (by some conceivable 
pronunciation of Latin?)

(and of course, Ewball vs Eyeball)

One probably wants to associate the talking parrot
with the Holy Ghost (almost got kicked out of a Milton
class once for making the obvious "Paraclete"/"Parakeet" joke)
-- and plus, although you might have to squint a bit
to get the Gringo pussy to line up with the Lion
(Mark?) among the Gospels, the Corpus Christi location 
certainly maps to an intimacy with the Holy Spirit
 
-------------------

with a dust cloud visible from their pursuers,
Frank, Ewball and El Ñato find 3 Tarahumara Indians;
they watch them run and catch up with them
crouching near a cave entrance.
