The little girl Rosita Morena gives thanks to the Virgin of Zapopan for curing her kitten who was so sad and didn’t even wanted to play with the yarn that it liked very much.

Thank you, Virgin, because the spaceship didn’t abduct the children and only illuminated them with light beams.

Raul and Carlitos Lopez saved a kitten who fell down in a well. They thank the Holy Virgin of San Juan because the kitten didn’t drown, and now they are keeping him as a pet.

17 <…> 1969 hundreds of spiders started falling from the dry wood that was in front of the house. They fell on my little son Juanito and bit him. I entrusted him to Saint Michael the Archangel and the boy only had fever but recovered quickly. We dedicate this retablo to Saint Michael because he protected my son from the spider venom.

Leopoldo Morales fell down in the well and nobody searched him until the night because he was mute and no one noticed that he wasn’t around. His mother, doña Luz, thanks the Virgin of San Juan because her son didn’t drown and is already recovering from pneumonia.

The girl Rosita Cabrera was very sad because her sister made a mean joke and cut her plait. She thanks Santa Rita because her parents punish her sister and to Rosita they bought a lot of sweets and a doll.

Virgin of San Juan, thank you for giving us enough strength to cross the desert and arrive in the USA where my son Jesus had a surgery to remove a tumor in his head. We thank you because you protected us under your cloak and now we are all right.

My boy Panchito ate a lot of sweets and felt severe pain in the stomach. Nothing helped him so I entrusted him to the Holy Child Doctor. With his divine help and with help of the doctor Panchito is feeling well now. I offer this retablo for that.

The teacher of my kids, Luis and Maria, told me if they wouldn’t get better in math then they should repeat the grade. I was heartbroken and entrusted them to the Virgin of the Rosary. She worked the miracle and my kids got better in math and passed to the fourth grade.

June 28, 1972, Paquito Gonzalez dropped the pan with boiling apple confiture. He got terrible burns, and his mommy, doña Luz Castrejon de Gonzalez, entrusted him to Saint Paschal Baylon in order to cure the boy with his divine intervention. She thanks the Saint for the miracle because her son was lucky and got better marvelously quickly.

The boys, Juan and Francisco Robledo, are thanking from the bottom of the heart Saint John Bosco with this retablo because their parents made their dream to go to Disneyland come true. And they even met Micky Mouse.

The dog of my neighbors had puppies. But after they were given away the dog was disconsolate. So when she saw my baby sunbathing in our yard she thought it was one of her puppies. And she took the baby with her. I give thanks to the Virgin of Zapopan because I noticed it in time before the dog would feed my little girl with a dog milk.

My daughter Sofia had a high fever, and I prayed to the Virgin for her recovery. I felt so tired so I fell asleep. Suddenly I was awakened by a soft flap of wings. I saw many little shining angels around my daughter’s bed. I thought it was a dream but next morning my baby had no fever and even asked for a breakfast. Then I was sure that it was a miracle of the Virgin who sent her angels to heal the girl. I give thanks to the Virgin.
