I’m asking the Virgin of Guadalupe for luck and strength so I could win the Golden Gloves tournament.

Jacinto Torres was beaten in the park for speaking out his political views. He thanks Saint James because the authorities took measures and arrested the attackers.

I thank the Virgin of Guadalupe for bringing my husband back from the USA. He used to work as a waiter in a restaurant in one of the twin towers in New York. When I saw this on TV, I prayed the Virgin for divine protection and help, and she heard my prayers.

We thank you, Virgin of Guadalupe, for giving us the opportunity to celebrate one more year of being together as a couple. We were bullied for being homosexuals, but we didn’t care because we are happy.

Juan Manuel Perez was playing hide-and-seek with other kids and saw a black cowboy in the granary. He appeared out of blue and said to the boy that he would tell him about treasures hidden in this very place. Juan got very scared and prayed the Virgin of Guadalupe. After that, the rider disappeared. Juan has grown up and now offers the Virgin this retablo.

After I’d broken up with my girlfriend I had no luck. Every time I go out strange things happened to me. I even lost my job without any reason. Then I was told that it was my ex-girlfriend who put an evil eye on me. I was so devastated, I prayed Saint Raymond Nonnatus. Thanks to his divine intervention my life has changed and I’ve got my job back. I dedicate this retablo.

Virgin of Guadalupe, thank you for the comfort you gave me. I was late to my work so I come back home. My partner wasn’t at home, I went to the roof. To my surprise I saw him hugging with another man. We had a huge fight, and he told me he had been going out with that guy. I kicked him out. It was very painful to me, but I had to break with him for good.

I was going down the stairs from the roof carrying the washing and stumbled on my son’s toys. I was worried that something bad would happen with my baby and ask the Holy Virgins for protection. And my baby was born healthy.
