Bishop and martyr in Vietnam. Born in La Calzada, in Old Castile, he entered the Dominicans and was sent to Asia. He went first to Manila, where he was ordained in 1828, and then went on to the missions in Vietnam. Consecrated a bishop and succeeding St. Ignatius Delgado as vicar apostolic, Jerome was arrested by Vietnamese authorities and was horribly tortured and then beheaded. Pope John Paul II canonized him in 1988.Â
