Saint Christopher

Hand painted icon of Saint Christopher, made in Mount Athos, on natural wood. The icon is delivered in a wooden box.

Saint Christopher lived at the time when Bishop of Antioch was the Holy Martyr Babylas, who baptized him Christian. It is said that Saint Christopher helped many people passing a stream, from one shore to the other, and one of those people was Jesus Christ. He was beheaded in 251 AD. Saint Christopher celebrates on May 9th.
