My fiancé and I went for an outing. We met an alien family who had a picnic. We were frightened, and we prayed the Virgin for protection. Then we ran away. We thank the Virgin for the aliens didn’t see us.

My husband, who is a musician, bought violins to our daughters. But since he was always on tour, he didn’t know that they hadn’t inherited his pitch and that they played horribly. For me it was a nightmare. I thank the Virgin of Zapopan because some of my husband’s concerts were canceled and he came home. When he heard this infernal music, he took away the violins from the girls. And I finally got some peace.

I sang serenades to my fiancée every week. But when I saw her brother Luis, I realized what my real sexual preferences were. Now it’s he whom I sing serenades to. I thank the Virgin of Zapopan because Luis reciprocates my feelings and his sister forgave us.

On the Day of the Dead, Cleotilde and I went to the mass. We met skeletons who had got out to celebrate. We ran to the church and prayed some rosaries for the souls of the skeletons. We thank the Virgin of San Juan because when we left the church, the skeletons had already turned back to their graves.

My son Ramiro was taken by the current. He didn’t know how to swim. But the Virgin of Zapopan send a brave and intelligent dog who saved him before he would have drowned.

Yolanda Campos went swimming in the laguna. She slipped and hit her head. She went to the bottom. Only thanks to the holiest intervention of the Virgin of the Rosary one fisherman noticed her and saved her before she would have drowned.

I was always followed by the cats when I went out. I thought it happened because I went to the market and they wanted some food. But then I noticed that they followed me anywhere. Maybe because I care about them, talk with them and sometimes, if I can, I leave them something to eat. I think they understand that I like them and that I always treat them with love. I thank Saint Francis for having a way with cats.

Maria Antoniela Perez broke her back when she tried to reach the top shelf of the cupboard. The cupboard fell on her and smashed her. She and her parents, doña Luz and don Ramon, give thanks to the Holy Virgin of Zapopan because the girl marvelously recovered. And the doctor said she is going to be alright.

I almost made the biggest mistake of my life when I was going to marry Maria Luisa. But there was Manuel standing outside the church. When I looked in his eyes I couldn’t resist and we ran away leaving my fiancée and her parents. They had a nervous breakdown. I thank the Virgin of San Juan because I didn’t ruin three lives. Now I’m happy with my fiancé and Maria Luisa already has a new suitor.

Martin Gonzalez was passionate about marine biology. He thanks the Virgin of Zapopan because he discovered a giant crab while diving. Moreover he managed to take a photograph of the crab and to study it.

I took my kids to walk in the field and we stayed there up till late. We didn’t noticed that it was the witch time, when the witches fly to Catemaco on their brooms. I thank the Blessed Sacrament for protecting us, with its infinite power, from the witches so they didn’t see us.

Rodrigo Alcantara, the most handsome bachelor in the area, proposed to me. He said that I had won his heart with my food. In fact, I’m very proud about my cooking skills so I gladly agreed to marry Rodrigo. I thanks Saint Anthony for the happy marriage.

My parents forced me to get married with a man I didn’t love only because he was a rich landowner. But it happened that exactly on the day of the wedding Jose Garcia, the man who I always loved, came back to town. He abducted me at the church door. I give thanks to the Blessed Sacrament because now we are going to be happy together.
