The kitchen was filled with rats, and my friends refused to visit me. I was very ashamed so I prayed a novena to the Virgin of Zapopan. On the ninth day the Holy Virgin worked the miracle, and the rats disappeared and never came back again. Now I can receive guests again.

Thank you, Virgin, for giving me the gift of healing the animals in the moonlight.

Pedro, the Healer

The day of my wedding was the happiest day of my life. Thanks to Saint Anthony I married a good man, hard-working, handsome and romantic. When we came out of the church we got on his horse and went to his ranch. The children waved to us and ran along us. I give thanks for so much happiness.

My sons’ dog liked to go on trips with them. But because it is very fat and clumsy one day it stubbled and fell. We thank the Virgin of Zapopan because the boys saved the dog and the poor animal wasn’t hurt too much.

Alfonso Ramirez thanks Saint Anthony the Abbot because, after much effort, he bought a black panther. Now it lives in his house and it’s very docile.

My dog was very hungry because with so many work to do I forgot to feed it. The animal pulled the mushroom soup on the floor and ate a lot of it. But afterwards it got sick. It seems there was a poisonous mushroom in the soup. I thanks Saint Paschal for the pet doctor gave serum and other medicine to the dog and saved the animal. Because I love this dog very much and it keeps my company.

When I became a widow, I left alone with my daughter and my little daughter. And two of my older sons had gone to the capital. So it was easier to the thieves to steal our animals. But thanks to the Holy Sacrament we tuned out to be strong women and managed to protect our animals and to give a thrashing to the thief who was going to steal our pigs. We attacked him with broom and rolling-pins.

My little sons were swimming in the river when suddenly came a giant toothy crocodile. I thank the Virgin because only by her infinite mercy the animal did nothing to them and I managed to get them out the river.

When I became a widow, I decided to get retired. I devoted myself to embroider and to care about my dogs. But one day the devil appeared and whispered in my ear some sinful ideas. Then I started to look with lust at the pharmacist Manuel and even on our priest. When I realized my distress, I prayed to the Virgin of Zapopan. Thanks to her inspiration I accepted the doctor Vazquez’ marriage proposal. Now I think only about him. And I thank the Holy Virgin for saving me from the devil.

A wolf was killing the sheep of the farmer Tomas Gomez. The farmer thanks Saint Anthony the Abbot for he was able to caught the wolf alive. Afterwards the animal was sent to an ecological reserve.

My aunt Honorata made me her only heir, but with one condition, that I take care of her cats. I never liked the cats, so I took it upon myself unwillingly. However, now I thank the Virgin of Guadalupe, because I realized what clean and cute animals the cats are. So now I not only have more money but also a nice cat company.

The kitchen was filled with bats. I was afraid that they were vampires and they would suck our blood. I prayed to the Virgin of San Juan for protection. Thanks to her these animals finally left our house. Although I think they bit our dog, thanks to the Holy Virgin it didn’t get rabies, nor did become a vampire-dog.

Miriam goes out to play with forest animals at nights. Thank Virgin, she comes back safe.
