OUR HISTORY
The Our Lady of Peñafrancia Devotees Association (Tri-State), Inc. (OLPDA) was organized in August 1990 by Lulu M. Menor and Angelita L. Peña and was later incorporated in 1993 as a 501(a), 501(c)(3) and 509(a)(1) organization during the term of Erlinda R. Arellano. The image of Ina was enshrined in 1999 at the Church of Our Lady of Victories in Jersey City. In 2010 a replica image of Ina from Naga City was donated by Archbishop Leonardo Legaspi of the Diocese of Caceres and Monsignor Romulo Vergara of the Peñafrancia Basilica Menore.
