We presented before Our Virgin of San Juan to ask her so that the coyote wouldn’t eat our turkeys. The Virgin heard our prayers and worked the miracle. So when the coyote came next time, the turkeys attacked it all together. They pecked it, and the coyote ran away scared and never came back.

There was an epidemic in the village that infected the animals. With all my faith, I entrusted myself to the Virgin of Guadalupe so that she would save my animals. They were saved, didn’t got infected and stayed in good health. They are all I have, and I thank you. May you be blessed, Virgin.

The godfather of the Salinas’ kids gave to their parents a big and beautiful turkey for the holidays. But the kids loved it so much, and the turkey turned to be very obedient and nice, that the parents, instead of eating it, decided to keep the turkey as a pet. The kids thank Saint Francis for this beautiful present.
