My cat became so lazy, our house became filled with mice. They even rob cat food from his bowl and ate it before his eyes. The cat didn’t react at all. I couldn’t stand this mouse freedom anymore and prayed the Virgin of Guadalupe. Then the miracle happened. My cat amended and caught all mice. He took them by surprise because they didn’t expect anything like this from the cat.

Virgin of Guadalupe, I dedicate you this retablo thanking for saving my life. I went to gather hay at my field. I had gathered many bags of it, when I met the Mejio brothers. We had some quarrels since their sister was my fiancée. They tried to kill me spearing me with my own hay fork. Thank goodness, don Alejo was passing by. He saw me and helped to get home.

Most of the time my husband is a very boring man. But thanks to the Virgin of Guadalupe some nights he turns into a real red demon and we aren’t bored for a few hours. These hours made up for the tedious routine.

I thank God with this ex-voto. My horse Colorin got sick. I had to give her medicine, and she almost died. Then I got an idea to give her medicine with a reed tube. My horse got cured, and I’m very happy. I thank the Virgin of Guadalupe.
