Sterling Silver St. Christopher Medal

A large man at 7.5 feet tall, he worked helping travelers cross a raging river safely. One day a small child asked for his service. Perched on Christopher’s shoulders, the child grew heavier and heavier as they crossed the stream. Reaching the other shore, Christopher asked him, ‘Who are you, that you placed me in such peril? It seems I was carrying the whole world on my shoulders.’ The child replied, ‘You not only carried the world, but him who made it. I am Jesus Christ, the King.’ St. Christopher's name means ‘Christ-bearer.’ He was believed to have lived in the third century during the reign of Decius. Saint Christopher is one of the most popular saints; revered by athletes, mariners, ferrymen, travelers and as one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers.
