Saint Drogo was a 12th-century Flemish saint who lived in France. Born into a noble family in Epinoy, he renounced his inheritance at age twenty to pursue a life of poverty. After traveling to various holy sites, he worked as a shepherd for Elizabeth de la Haire in Sebourg. Seeking solitude for prayer, he eventually spent forty-five years living as an anchorite in a small cell attached to a church. He is recognized as a thaumaturge and is the patron saint of shepherds.
