Saint Christopher

Saint Christopher, a strong man, encountered a hermit who helped people cross a treacherous river. Christopher took over the hermit's role and began carrying travelers across the river instead. One day, he carried a child who revealed himself as Christ and baptized Christopher. Saint Christopher is known as the patron saint of Automobiles, Bachelors, Bus Drivers, Hazards of Traveling, Motorists, Porters, Travel, Travelers, and Truck Drivers. His memorial feast day is celebrated on July 25th each year.
