Saint Christopher

According to legend, Christopher was a giant who devoted his life to carrying travelers across a river. One day a small child asked to be transported and in the middle of the river the child became so heavy that Christopher staggered under the burden, complained of the weight, and was told that he had borne upon his back the world and Him who created it. Hence, Saint Christopher (Greek: “Christ-Bearer”) is represented carrying the Christ Child on his back. 

Saint Christopher is the patron saint of travelers, children and motorists. Wear this medal for protection through your Journey.
