Profile


Third century


martyr

in the persecutions of

Decius

. Little else is known for sure.

His fame derives from the pious legend of him being a “Christ-bearer” (= Christopher). He was a powerfully built man who wandered the world in search of novel
[Saint Christopher]
ty and adventure. He came upon a

hermit

who lived beside a dangerous stream and served others by guiding them to safe places to cross. He gave Offero instruction in the truth of God. Offero took the

hermit

‘s place, but instead of guiding

travellers

, he carried them safely across the stream.

One day he carried a small

child

across the stream; the

child

‘s weight nearly crushed him. When they arrived on the other side, the

child

revealed himself as Christ, and he was so heavy because he bore the weight of the world on himself. He then

baptised

Offero with water from the stream. Christopher’s service at the stream led to his

patronage

of things related to travel and

travellers

, people who carry things, etc. One of the


Fourteen Holy Helpers
