Saint Dominic De La Calzada

Saint Dominic De La Calzada, also known as Dominic of the Causeway, Dominic of Landeveien, Dominico, or Dominicus, was born in Victoria, Biscay, Spain. He felt a strong calling to religious life and initially attempted to join the Benedictines at Valvanera, but his request was declined. Undeterred by this setback, Dominic decided to become a hermit at Rioja, Spain....
