Our Lady of Peñafrancia, devotedly called INA, is the patroness of Bicolandia. Her feast, popularly known as the Peñafrancia festival is celebrated every 3rd Saturday and Sunday of September.
The Traslacion or the transfer of the image of Our Lady from its sanctuary to the Cathedral, which was held yesterday, marked the start of the festival in Naga City.
The last day of the commemoration is the fluvial procession, wherein the image of the Virgin Mary is carried on a barge and is returned to her shrine (Basilica) through the Naga River route.
And this afternoon, INA visited our home.
