St. Christopher Prayer - Banner BANPSP763

Artwork by the Benedictine Sisters of Turvey Abbey

Christopher (from the Greek meaning Christ - bearer), Martyr of the third Century. Traditionally portrayed carrying the Christ-Child.

Feast Day (where celebrated locally in the West) 25th July.

Little is known of the true identity or life of the martyr, the spiritual sense of him 'carrying Christ in his heart and bearing great trials for the faith' gave rise over the following eight centuries to the popular idea of him physically bearing the Christ-Child safely across a torrential stream. This cemented his role as the patron of safe travel.
