I thank the Virgin of San Juan for I have found a partner who also adores cats. Because I can’t live without them.

We thank St. Francis for our families accepted our relationship, so from now on we can live together.

I, Roberto Pilar, thank the Souls in the Purgatory for help. I was a faggot since childhood. I loved dolls, I dressed up as a girl. But my father used to beat me for that. Later I was dating a doctor named Butcher. Thanks to the Souls, I ran away from my home and now live as a woman. I dedicate this exvoto.

Mexico City, Tlalpan
January 11, 1970

We had been on an island for three years. We fell in love with each other. And then we were saved by a plane.

Saint Charbel, thank you for your favors. I prayed you a lot so that I’d find my partner. We’d lived together for two years, and then he left me after he’d found out I had been cheating on him with another guy. I missed him and couldn’t resist to live on without him, so I went to search him. Finally I met him in a bar. I always imagined he’d be dressed in black. So it was, because he loves dressing up like this.

May you be blessed, Virgin of Guadalupe, for the miracle that Luis came to live with me. We love each other although his family doesn’t accept our relationship. But it’s not our fault that we are who we are.

Luis & Jilverto — February 14, 1985

Viva the homosexuality! Gay, male prostitute, happy. Viva Pedro Reyes! Thanks to the Virgin.

Pedro and Juan thank the Virgin for being very happy.

Holy Child of Atocha, thank you for your favors. When my ex-boyfriend and his current lover were entering the hotel, I yelled at him “Boyfriend stealer!” and to hurt more called him a cheap rotten ass faggot. He got angry, grabbed my hair and scratch my face. The I felt a hit in my back. Four days later, I went to the doctor. They made an x-ray and found out a needle in my body. I needed a surgery, I had a suppuration and a high fever. I thank for coming well through the surgery.

Saint Jude Thaddeus, thank you for all your favors. It happened so I met this handsome european guy Robert in Oaxaca, on the beach. Turned out he liked men as I do. We fell in love, and Robert even thinks to move to Mexico and to open here a restaurant, since he is a qualified chef. I thank for having met Robert.

Saint Anthony of Padua, thank you for your help. I was asking for a lover and I found one. I met David who is a very handsome man with beautiful mustache. I was seating on a bench in the Alameda Central park eating an ice-cream and he sat by me. We started talking, and we chatted for two hours. So we became a couple.

Enrique Gomez — Mexico City, 1957

We met each other on our destined paths. We are in relationship and thank the Heart for that without fear of what the others say. He and I.

Colonia Condeza, Mexico City, 2005

In the wrestling, I met the love of my life. Thank you.
