We thank Saint Rosary because we managed to cast out the devil of lust from Lupita, although he got in me right away, and it went even worse.

I dedicate this photo to Saint Anthony of Padua as a gratitude for the miracle he worked for me when Maria Lupita finally gave me a proper kiss.

The Virgin of Guadalupe gave me the delight of flying three nights in a row. I flew under the moonlight, over the fields and over the towns. Although my husband told me it were only dreams, I know it was real. I thank the Virgin for the beautiful and unusual experience and dedicate this retablo to her.

I give thanks to the Virgin of Guadalupe for saving me and my family from the terrible flu epidemic that broke out in the city.

I dedicate this drawing to the Virgin of Guadalupe in her Day, December 12, 2013, as sign of my eternal gratitude for showing me that despite my wife Maria Virginia de Sosisoxitl being incapable to cook neither ceviche nor pozole, she still can be very good at the kitchen… and dirty.

I give thanks to Saint Pancras with this retablo because I finally managed to catch the two rats that lived in my basement. They were the size of a cat.

We lived happily with my wife Patricia all our life. But then she got insane. Her behavior was frightening. She threw stuff and even furniture when she was mad. And she lost her temper over nothing. I prayed to the Holy Child of Atocha. Thanks to him my sister gave to my wife some herbs. With those herbs, and also with some pills prescribed by the doctor, her madness was over. I thank for that.

I dedicate this retablo to Saint Isidore the Labourer. In spite of staying in the hospital with horrible pains in my liver a cause of cirrhosis, I’ve met a very pretty nurse, although she has the small head. She gives me cigars and lends me her electric shaver.

We dedicate this retablo to the Virgin of San Juan for a great fishing. Thanks to that I managed to save money for my daughter Laura’s 15th birthday.

I thank the Virgin because thanks to my job I can provide for all my dogs that I picked up on the street. They love me very much and keep me company.
