Our new neighbor had an enormous and angry dog that scared my cats. I was afraid that one day it could kill one of them. So I prayed to the Virgin of Zapopan for protection, and thanks to her the neighbor didn’t stay for long here. He found a much better house on the other side of the town. He moved there, delivering my cats from his beast.

Guard my cows, because sometimes the devil comes to dance with them.

Pedro Garcia fell off the horse and didn’t come to consciousness, because he hit his head on stones. His brother Raul was scared and prayed to the Virgin of Zapopan so that Pedro would recover his consciousness. And he did, and he didn’t die.

Juan Pablo Rodrigez desperately asked the Virgin fro help. His sheep fell into the water, and he thought they were going to drown. The Virgin helped him, and he give thanks.

When Timoteo Perez was gathering the maguey sap, he found himself in serious danger, because an UFO was going to abduct him. He prayed the Virgin of the Solitude and didn’t get hurt. He only pissed his pants out of fear.

The girl went to swim in the river and met a crocodile. Saint Barbara saved her.

I went for a walk with Ramon, and an angry bull started to chase us. Ramon jumped over the fence leaving me with the furious animal. I thank the Virgin of Guadalupe for two things. First, for I was able to get over the fence and save myself from the bull. Second, for letting me see what type of man I was dealing with. He didn’t care about my safety. And I even considered marrying this man.

A being from another galaxy arrived and got to the animals. Thanks for it didn’t cause any harm to them.

The death was riding his horse around the town. Everyone was frightened that the death would take someone, so they prayed to the Virgin of Guadalupe.

My son Ramiro was taken by the current. He didn’t know how to swim. But the Virgin of Zapopan send a brave and intelligent dog who saved him before he would have drowned.

Altagracia Mireles gives thanks to the Virgin of Zapopan for protecting her daughter Dulce Maria when don Eladio’s dog came to the house. It was an aggressive animal, but it did nothing to the girl. She ran to hug the dog, and the dog barked and went away. I dedicate this retablo in order to thank the Virgin of Zapopan.

Aurelia Medina was walking very happy because she had bought two beautiful piglets at the market square. She didn’t notice a deep pit and fell into it. She prayed to the Virgin of Zapopan, and a peasant, who was passing by, took her and the piglets out.

I was always followed by the cats when I went out. I thought it happened because I went to the market and they wanted some food. But then I noticed that they followed me anywhere. Maybe because I care about them, talk with them and sometimes, if I can, I leave them something to eat. I think they understand that I like them and that I always treat them with love. I thank Saint Francis for having a way with cats.
