St. Christopher, the patron saint of travelers, is best known for a powerful and symbolic story:
Christopher was a very tall and strong man who served Christ by helping people cross a dangerous river, using his great size and strength.
One day, a small child asked to be carried across. As Christopher crossed the river, the child grew incredibly heavy, nearly overwhelming him. When they reached the other side, the child revealed he was Jesus Christ—and that Christopher had just carried the weight of the world on his shoulders.
This moment transformed Christopher. His name means "Christ-bearer" (from Greek Christophoros), and the story became a powerful metaphor for faith and service.
Because St. Christopher literally helped people safely reach the other side of a dangerous place, he came to symbolize safe passage and protection on journeys. Travelers pray to him for strength, guidance, and safety. His image is often worn as a medal, kept in cars, or placed in luggage for spiritual protection while on the road.
