According to tradition, he carried the Christ child across a dangerous river, symbolizing strength, protection, and service. Athletes and adventurers have long worn his medal as a sign of faith and a request for safe passage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat age range is this necklace appropriate for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis medal is sized for boys and men. The 1\" oval pendant and 24\" heavy curb chain are well-suited for teens through adults. For younger children, we recommend checking our smaller medal options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the chain adjustable, and what type of clasp does it have?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chain is an endless (no-clasp) 24\" stainless steel heavy curb chain, meaning it slips over the head without a clasp. This design is durable and snag-resistant—ideal for active wear on the slopes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this a good gift for a skier?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely. The medal's front imagery of a downhill skier, combined with the St. Christopher protection prayer, makes this a deeply personal and faith-filled gift for any Catholic skier—whether for Christmas, a birthday, a ski trip milestone, or simply as an everyday reminder of God's protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill the medal tarnish over time?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. The medal is made from non-tarnishing pewter, so it maintains its silver-tone finish with normal wear. The stainless steel chain is also highly resistant to tarnish and corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlways With You\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eDear God Our Father,\u003cbr\u003e\nhelp me to wisely use the gifts and\u003cbr\u003e\ntalents that You have so graciously\u003cbr\u003e\nbestowed upon me.\u003cbr\u003e\nCreate in me Dear Lord:\u003cbr\u003e\nThe right attitude with which to\u003cbr\u003e\nexcel in any endeavor.\u003cbr\u003e\nA firm belief in You, Our Savior, that\u003cbr\u003e\nthrough You I can do great things.\u003cbr\u003e\nA strong desire to never quit, no\u003cbr\u003e\nmatter what the odds.\u003cbr\u003e\nA willingness to give 100% of myself\u003cbr\u003e\nto You and to others at all times.\u003cbr\u003e\nDear Lord, bestow in me a\u003cbr\u003e\ntrue understanding that, with\u003cbr\u003e\nYou beside me, there is no end\u003cbr\u003e\nto what I can achieve.\u003cbr\u003e\nAmen.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n— Matthew 28:20\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CFS Warehouse","offers":[{"title":"Silver-tone \/ 1\" x 5\/8\"","offer_id":50392365826279,"sku":"PSD675SK","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0702\/5636\/1703\/files\/Boys-St-Christopher-Skier-Medal-Prayer-Card_78284.jpg?v=1728860841","url":"https:\/\/www.catholicfaithstore.com\/products\/st-christopher-skier-medal-prayer-card-boys-men","provider":"Catholic Faith Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
