I was driving a bus when the brakes broke down. The bus was going to fall of the cliff, but thanks to the Virgin of San Juan I hit a tree, that kept the bus from falling. I dedicate the retablo for that.

Francisco Herrera Cabella fell of the tractor and didn’t die only thanks to the Virgin of the Sanctus.

My bus’ brakes broke down, and it went into cowboys and their cows. I thought I was going to crush them all. But thanks to Holy Spirit I only hit one cow, but nothing serious happened even with this cow. I thank because no one got killed through my fault.

The young man Antonio Romero was participating in a nude bicycle race. He kept gazing at one very nice girl and crashed into a car. He hurt his balls. He thanks St. Philip Neri for the recovery.

Jose Perez and Gustavo Ruiz thank the Virgin of Guadalupe with this retablo for they survived a head-on bus crash. They suffered only minor injuries and helped others.

A truck with pigs crashed in another truck right in front of our house. The truck doors opened, and all the pigs ran away. The truck drivers managed to catch every pig except one. One pregnant pig was hiding in our house. We thank the Virgin of Zapopan for we have four pigs now.

Jose thanks the Virgin of Guadalupe for saving him when his car’s brakes went out on a turn and he fell of the cliff. He thanks with this retablo.

Federico Garcia was hit by a bus while riding a bike near by the church. Nothing happened with the bicycle, but Federico broke his leg. The doctor said that he probably would be limping for the rest of his life, because it was a very nasty fracture. But thanks to the Virgin of San Juan Federico got recovered and now walks without problem.
