Our Patron

http://www.stchrisparish.org/patron.html

A Word About Our Patron. From the many stories and legends associated with the name of Saint Christopher, one image has been consistent. That image is of a man who is strong, simple, kind and completely dedicated to one thing: serving the Lord by serving others. The miracle brought about the conversion of many people in the region, which angered the pagan king. In his fury, the king had Christopher thrown into prison, tortured and beheaded.
