Biography

Saint Leocritia of Cordoba, also known as Saint Leocricia, is a revered Catholic martyr hailing from Cordoba, Spain. Born to wealthy Moorish parents, Leocritia converted to Christianity, a decision that led to her family disowning and driving her out. However, even in the face of adversity, her unwavering faith led her to find solace and support under the shelter of Saint Eulogius of Cordoba.
