Who's Saint Nicholas?
Saint Nicholas was born in the third century to devout christian parents. Love of Christ led Saint Nicholas to use all of his inheritance to help the needy, the sick, and suffering. Saint Nicholas's charitable gifts were done in secret, expecting nothing in return. Every December 6th we celebrate the life and wondrous deeds of Saint Nicholas. Through his example we too bring the good news of Jesus Christ to the world while helping those in need.
