St. Christopher is known for the story in which he transported the Christ Child across a dangerous river. Christopher has always been a popular saint; he is well-known as the patron saint of athletes and travelers.

The front of this silver oxidized St. Christopher devotional medal shows Christopher carrying the Christ Child across the river. On the back are the words Pray For Us. The small medal can be attached to a chain and worn around the neck as a devotional medal, or carried as a pocket token. This devotional medal makes a great gift for First Communions and Confirmations, those who share Christopher's name, or those with a special devotion to the saint, particularly athletes and those who are traveling.
