Saint Anthony, thank you because on my summer vacations I met the love of my life and I only think about him.

I’m standing before you, Holy Virgin, with a deadly wound in my heart that was caused by a heartless woman who rejected my sincere love. I thank you for bringing me peace and healing, little by little, the wounds of my poor heart that might love again someday.

I was very fat, and my cousins told me that I’d never get married. But I prayed to the Virgin of Zapopan, and thanks to her Antonio began to pay me attention. We are going to get married shortly after our engagement, because he’s telling I’m the prettiest girl in the town. And I believe him.

1975, I met Senaido. I fell in love with his beautiful smile. I didn’t know he was a masochist, and I fell under his charm. But he began to torture me, every day. I bring this retablo to Saint Jude Thaddeus thanking him because Senaido deposit beat me anymore.

The relationship between Eduardo and Miguel is getting stronger every day thanks to love and understanding. They thank Saint Sebastian for that.

Colonia Condesa, Mexico, 1987

After the wedding ceremony my fiancé and I ran to the beach. There we took off our shoes and celebrated the beginning of our life together. Then we took a horse and came back to the party. All the old ladies looked at us with reproach but we didn’t care bakes nothing could darken our illimitable happiness.

I, Dulce Lopez, thank the Virgin of Guadalupe because after all my suffering, when I fell in love with a feminist and was scared to be rejected because of my heterosexual past, the life smiled upon me again.

Roberto P. used to spy on his sexy neighbor while she was hanging washing out. One day she noticed him and instead of getting angry she made him her lover. Roberto thanks Saint Charnel with this retablo.

As I promised, I dedicate this retablo to Saint Anthony of Padua for the miracle of sending me a fiancé. I thought, in my age, I would stay an old maid. I’m very happy with my Evaristo. He loves me, and we are going to get married.

Felipe R. decided to kill himself because nobody understood him. He threw himself into the lake. But one guy saved him. It was a great miracle of the Virgin of San Juan, because this guy became to Felipe love of his life. Felipe gives thanks with this retablo.

July 21, 1959

We committed a heavy sin, trying to bewitch the Fulgencia’s husband. We danced ecstatically and did all exactly how doña Panful had taught us to keep him in love. We were dancing around the fire, when the charcoal began to meow devilishly and the horrible creature appeared to us. We started to pray the Virgin of Guadalupe at once, asking for forgiveness.

I thank Saint Jude Thaddeus for having met Malena in Zipolite the hot summer of 2002.
