St. Nicholas - Lectern Frontal LF751
Artwork
by the Benedictine Sisters of Turvey Abbey
Nicholas, Bishop.
Feast Day: 6th December.
Born in the 4th Century in Turkey (Asia Minor) he
became Bishop of Myra and is honoured in both the Western and Eastern churches.
As early as the 6th Century a church was built in his honour in Constantinople.
Although little historical evidence is known of him he was loved for his
generosity which gave rise to the custom of gift giving in December associated
with him, hence the name Santa Claus for Saint Nicholas.
He is also associated with saving sailors from a
violent shipwreck during a storm in the Mediterranean and this is the image
portrayed on the banner. He is known as the patron saint of sailors and children.
