St. Nicholas of Myra


St. Nicholas of Myra (March 15, 270 – December 6, 343) was the bishop of Myra and signed the Nicene Creed at the First Ecumenical Council 325. He had a reputation for secret gift-giving, such as putting coins in the shoes of those who left them out for him, and thus became the model for Santa Claus.
