Thank you, Virgin of Guadalupe, for the miracle that I arrived well to the Mexico City, along with the passengers who did confide in me. The bus lost its brakes as we approached Zihuatanejo and it went like it was driven by the devil. In such danger, I entrusted myself to you, promising this exvoto which I bring now.

Federico, grateful driver

Since Donald Trump began his term as the president of the United States, he dedicate himself to persecuting and attacking thousands of Mexicans—us who honestly work in his country. He deported me and my companions separating us from our families. I beg the Virgin of Guadalupe that Trump wouldn’t win the next election in November.

Felipe N., 2020

I was in my bed with a light fever. Suddenly I saw skeletons who came near me and began to perform a wicked dance inviting me to join them. I prayed the Virgin of Guadalupe to save me from this absurd act and to take the skeletons far away. I closed my eyes for a moment, and when I opened them the miracle had been worked. I was feeling much better. I dedicate this retablo.

I give you thanks, cool Virgin, because you looked after me the other day when a policeman wanted to put me in the nick and you helped me to convince him that would be better for him to accept a bribe because you know he’s also poor and has to buy bullets for his pistol and also to chip in for his boss who probably always wants to get contributions. So that’s why I’m thanking you for I’m not in the nick thanks to the bribe.

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.
