This
sterling silver St. Christopher pendant is enclosed in a beautiful box, comes with
a Rhodium, lite curb chain and is 7/8" X 3/8". The St. Christopher medallion features the
saint with Jesus on his shoulders, wading in water. This medallion is not oval, but rather is cut
out in the shape of his body.
St. Christopher offered his
services at a dangerous stream to all travelers to see them safely across
it. Our Lord came to him one stormy
night and asked to be transported across.
Christopher did so. However, on
the journey, Christ became heavier and heavier, so that Christopher almost sank
and couldn't complete the crossing. Once
they had reached the other side, Christopher asked why the child had become so
heavy. Our Lord replied that Christopher
had just carried the weight of the world on his shoulders. Christopher is the patron saint of motorists
and travelers. This St. Christopher
medal would be a great item to have with you on your travels so that he can
protect you.
