When I was taking my little daughter to visit her grandmother, we were attacked by some rabid dogs. I thank the Virgin of Guadalupe for they didn’t bite her.

Toluca, October 5, 1959

I was heartbroken because my son Antonio wasn’t married and I worried that the day I’m gone he’d be left alone. I thank Saint Anthony of Padua for hearing my prayers because my son finally fell in love with a good girl. May you be blessed.

I, Casimira Sanchez, thank Saint Francis of Assisi because my husband won the booby prize with me. Being so excited in the circus he didn’t even see that a dark black man who stayed near me touched my hand and that three our kids look like him.

The villages of Sierra de las Cruces and Monte Alto, state of Mexico, we thank the Holy Lord of Holy Face from Campana, the Lord of the Exaltation from Xochicuautla, the Virgin of Gaudalupe on the board, Mary of Los Remedies, Naucalpan, Saint James of Temoaya, the Holy Lord of Chalma and Saint Michael the Archangel from Ameyalco for covering us with their mantles and keeping COVID-19 away from us. It was invented by the governments to end with villages and old people.

Thanks to Saint Martha I could go far in my profession as a bartender. She answered my pleas so I worked in the best restaurants and bars and gained competence. Now I have my own bar.

1914, coming to Puebla, the federals were close on my heels. I entrusted myself to Saint Martin the Cavalryman and could escape safely so they didn’t catch me. I thank for this great favor.

I was in despair because my dishes always turned out horrible because I didn’t know how to cook. I asked Saint Paschal Baylon for help. Now my husband is very happy with my food, and he even bought me new pans and pots. Now my dishes come out very delicious, and I give thanks for that.

Sergio Ramon Martinez suffered a rollover when he was going to his family reunion in General Terán and fell asleep. However, he came out unharmed because he fastened his seat belt. He offers this retablo to the Virgin of San Juan in gratitude for this miracle.

Thank you, Virgin, for saving me from a stroke because of the wrestling.

Blue Demon, 11 Dec. 1970

I was bathing with my monkey, then the Bony came to the bathroom, and we chased her out for being too nosy.

Mexico, August 28, 1979

My cat Toto was very lazy, and our house became flooded with rats. They scared me terribly, and I asked the Virgin of San Juan to deliver me from them. She worked a miracle, and on July 15, 1951, the rats disappeared and never came back.

I dedicate this exvoto to Saint Vincent for the movie “Planet of the Apes”. This movie excited and scared me when I was little. Incredible costumes and decorations made my imagination work overtime. Even now I have many good memories about this sci-fi classic.
