Felipe R. decided to kill himself because nobody understood him. He threw himself into the lake. But one guy saved him. It was a great miracle of the Virgin of San Juan, because this guy became to Felipe love of his life. Felipe gives thanks with this retablo.

There was a fire in our house on May 3. I was on the third floor, and I thank the Virgin of Guadalupe because me and my cats were saved by a fireman. Everyone was saved, and the fire was extinguished promptly.

I’m very glad since I’m singing in the shower again because I found a very good soap with a wonderful aroma that deodorizes my body’s bad smell after the boxing matches in the Coliseo Azteca.

My husband Tomas smoked marijuana, didn’t work and didn’t pay me any attention. So I prayed to Saint Barbara and she gave me enough courage to give him an ultimatum. It worked—now he’s working.

May 15, 1968

The Morales sisters were coming back from the market and met some martians in an alley. The martians said something with their high pitch voices. The sisters got scared, dropped their baskets and ran away. However, the curiosity brought them back. They looked at the alley and saw the martians eating the dropped food with joy. The sisters are thankful to the Virgin of Zapopan because the extraterrestrials didn’t abduct them and were merely hungry.

I became a sleepwalker. I was afraid I might have an accident while sleep-walking. But the Virgin worked the miracle and made my cats protect me. When I went to a dangerous place, they began to meow loudly and I woke up avoiding the danger.

My wife painted our bedroom in insanely red color. She also decorated it with red things. All because she had read in a magazine that red is the color of the passion. I thank the Virgin of San Juan that she finally came to her senses because this horrible color caused her the headache and irritated her eyes. So she painted all white again.

Camilo Morales was swimming when he got cramp and went to the bottom of the sea. He felt his lung ruptured. In his delirium, he saw three mermaids that dragged him to the shore and gave him the necessary oxygen with their kisses. Camilo thanks the Blessed Sacrament for this miracle.

July 30, 1958, the devil got inside my body, and I was going to kill my husband with the kitchen knife. But the Virgin of Zapopan held my arm from doing such a thing. I give thanks.

My husband used to have dreams about voluptuous and seductive women. He hugged, kissed and spoke in the dream and had a stupid smile on his face. It drove me nuts. The horrible part was that after that he woke up in a very good mood. Then the Virgin gave me an idea to take a photo of me in the bed. I looked very seriously in that photo, so he would know that I was watching him. It helped. My husband doesn’t hug or kiss in his sleep anymore <…>
