La Virgen de los Remedios de Pampanga also known as Indu ning Capaldanan, Tula ning Kapampangan is a Marian title of the Blessed Virgin Mary venerated by Capampangan Catholics as the official patroness of Pampanga, Philippines.
The devotion is paired with a crucified image of Christ called Santo Cristo del Perdón, highlighted by a prayer apostolate known as Cruzada de Penitencia y Caridad (Crusaders for Penance and Charity), a prayer group started by women which focused on Catholic social justice for the poor and the destitute, and was originally founded to combat against the spread of Communism in the province of Pampanga.
