The new neighbor had an enormous and angry dog that scared my cats. I was afraid that one day it could kill one of them. I prayed to the Virgin of Zapopan, and thanks to her the neighbor didn’t last long and found a better house on the other side of the town. So my cats were saved from this beast.

My neighbor had a giant monstrous cat. It could eat an entire chicken at once. My kitty was scared to go outside. I prayed the Virgin of Guadalupe so that she would help us in this difficult situation. Thanks to the Virgin’s miracle the neighbor moved away and took her cat with her. Now my kitty can walk outside.

I give due thanks to Saint Anthony of Padua because Romualdo Reyes, the most handsome guy in the town, payed attention to me and asked my father for my hand in marriage. Despite my neighbors’ jealousy, our love will be growing more and more.

The neighbor’s dogs came and eat up the dinner that I was preparing, while I went to answer the phone. I was very angry and I began kicking them out with a broom. But then I saw their hungry faces, and it touched my heart. Now I bring the leftovers to the patio so the dogs could eat, because my neighbor starves them.

A demon got in my room through the window and began to put my clothes on. He spent the night looking at himself in the mirror. I was scared and very insulted because all my clothes smelt like sulphur. Then I got an idea to take the mirror to the henhouse. Thanks to the Virgin of Zapopan, the devil didn’t come back. Now he visits my neighbor’s room because she smells like sulphur and she has a very beautiful mirror.
