Saint Christopher was a large man from Palestine who helped travelers cross a raging river like a human ferry. One day a small child asked to be carried across the river. The child grew heavier as Saint Christopher crossed the river. After crossing the river Saint Christopher asked the child"Who are you, that you placed me in such peril." The child replied "You not only carried the world, but him who made it. I am Jesus Christ the King".
