We thank the Virgin of Guadalupe for surviving the earthquake that shook Mexico City the morning of September 19. The roof of our house fell on me and my family. The neighbors got us out. When I came back to my senses I began to pray to the Holy Virgin for my family. Now all of us give thanks for this miracle.

May you be blessed, Virgin of Guadalupe, for healing Roman. When he found out I was leaving him, he took poison. I’m so sorry about it and I ask for forgiveness because we do love each other.

Saint Jude Thaddeus, I thank you and I offer you this retablo because my husband fell asleep and didn’t noticed that I was with the butcher’s son. It was a horrible situation, and I’m sorry for that. I ask you to forgive me, and I’ll never do it again. I promised you if it all would end well, I’d offer you a retablo. And now I do.

Sacred Heart, thank you for giving me the opportunity to love and be loved. This love is forbidden, but it made me feel everything I had desired. I know it’s a sin, but nobody’s gonna deprive me of this pleasure. I repent of nothing, and I’m never leave him.

We thank Saint Sebastian because the Law for Coexistence Partnerships gave to us, two men in love, right to live as a couple in marriage without hiding our love from the public and without being ashamed for our love.
