It all began on a certain day when Dacoba was clearing the land which he was tilling. He cut a calpe tree, which is use as firewood. However, he was surprise because even many hours that passed by, the tree was still as fresh as it was before; its leaves did not wilt. He informed his landlord about it. That landlord was Don Arcilla of Buhi who then consulted the pastor of Buhi of what could be done with it. The friar pastor of Buhi summoned as sculptor named Bagacumba. Out of the tree, he was able to carve three statuettes-Nuestra Señora de Salvacion, San Antonio de Padua, and Nuestra Señora de Solidad—now in Brgy. Joroan of Tiwi, and in the poblacion and Brgy. Tambo both of Buhi, respectively.
The Joroan known in Albay, was separated from Buhi. So, the image of the Salvacion likewise separated from Buhi and no chance to become a part of Tiwi.
In 1805, a strong typhoon hit the area where a small simple shrine was built to shelter the image. So they moved the image temporarily to Tiwi until such time that the place reconstructed completely. But the devotion to the Virgin were established in Tiwi. Conflict rises between to devotees, one Joroan and the other was the Tiwi devotees.
In 1918, an assembly was conducted with the participation of the members. They agreed to turn Joroan into another parish and built a new shrine to a sixteen-hectare land. When the it was completely constructed in September 15, 1919. The image was finally returned to Joroan on November in the same year.

[edit] Apparitions and Miracles
When the Muslims attacked Joroans and planned to burn their houses, but each time, the torch would not ignite.
On the second attempt, they chanced upon Hermana Tiray, the holder of the image, and took her captive back to Mindanao. Because she was tired she went into a deep sleep, and when she came to, she saw a white deer and followed it, until she lost track of it. she found herself back in Albay. She spent throughout her life serving the Virgin.
Three devotees from the Region of Catanduanes went on a pilgrimage to Joroan, they bring along with them a set of candles in their boat. Upon reaching the shore, two of them decided to detour to Buhi and light candles for St. Anthony, while the other was left to guard the boat. A woman carrying a child approached the man and asked for a candle to light her way. The man refused because the candle was not his. The lady insisted and promised that she would return the candle in the morning if he would come to her house uphill. The man get her address and gave her one. She lighted the candle and walked away. On the next day, the man went to the address were the lady gave him but to his surprised he saw the candle on the on the foot of the image unlighted and unused.

Don Manuel Casa, a Manileño and an architect volunteered for his service. But he is suffering from paralyzing disease. When he came to the cite he saw that a church was his task. As he started to work, he began feeling much better and when he was done with it, he was completely cured.
