Saint Walter of Pontoise (ca. 1030ca. 1099) was a French saint of the eleventh century. Born at Andainville, he was a professor of philosophy and rhetoric before becoming a Benedictine monk at Rebais (diocese of Meaux). A story told of him is that while a novice, Walter took pity on an inmate at the monastery prison, and helped the prisoner to escape. Philip I appointed him abbot of a new foundation at Pontoise, despite Walters protestations. The foundation of Pontoise was initially dedicated to Saint Germanus of Paris but then was dedicated to Saint Martin. The discipline at this new foundation was lax, and Walter fled the house several times to avoid this responsibility. Walter left his position at Pontoise to become a monk at Cluny under Hugh but he was forced to return to Pontoise. A story told of him was that he once took the road to Touraine and hid himself on an island in the Loire, before being led back to the abbey. He also escaped to an oratory near Tours dedicated to Cosmas and Damian before being recognized by a pilgrim there. After being forced to return again, this time Walter decided to go to Rome to appeal directly to the Pope. Walter gave Pope Gregory VII his written resignation, but Gregory ordered him to assume his responsibilities as abbot and never leave again. Thereafter, he campaigned against the abuses and corruptions of his fellow Benedictines, and was beaten and imprisoned. He resumed his work after being released. He founded, in 1094, at Berteaucourt-les-Dames near Amiens, a monastery for women, with the assistance of Godelinda and Elvige (also spelled Godelende and Hleguide). He is patron Saint of prisoners; prisoners of war; vintners; invoked against job-related stress His Feast day is April 8

-- Mary

"Ordered a St. Michael's medal for my grandson for his graduation from the New York City Police. Upon arrival I was extremely pleased with the workmanship and quality of the medal. Customer Service was extremely helpful when I called for a small error and worked with me for my complete satisfaction. Would highly recommend this company and will shop with them again."
-- Sandra

"One of the best websites I have been on shopping for religious medals. Great variety."
-- Patty

"I bought a medal for my husband for Christmas. I know that he will love it. There is no saint for his name so I got the one that is nearest to his name. He won't have to use his middle name like he always does. I like dealing with Pictures On Gold. This was my second time."
-- Joan Cestra

"I've purchased two Miraculous Medals from you at different times. Both times I've been highly satisfied. They came when expected and there were no hidden costs. Actually look so much better than pictures on site. No photo does jewelry any justice. The recent one I got was in sterling silver. I bought it for a friend for Mothers Day as she keeps admiring the one I always wear. Won't she be surprised. Thank you for your meticulous work in creating this fine jewelry."
-- Virginia

"I received my St. Raphael dog tags today and I could not be happier. The dog tags themselves were stunningly beautiful and exceeded my highest expectation. My special instructions concerning the engraving, though a little complicated, were followed to a "t". Your website was easy to navigate, and very helpful in giving me a good image of what the dog tags and engraving would look like. The shipping was lightning fast -- the dog tags were shipped the same day I ordered them and I received them a mere two days later. Everything about my experience with PICTURES ON GOLD was top notch and I can't thank you enough for your outstanding customer service, and a medal that quite simply took my breath away. Linda"
-- Linda

"I ordered the medal yesterday, and received it today. I'm utterly astonished It is beautifully engraved and just the right size. You people rock I will be a repeat customer, you can bet on it. Gift box is also very pretty. My daughter will love wearing her patron saint as she starts her career. Thank you so much."
-- Theresa

""I searched the internet for just the right pendant. I found one exactly like I wanted at PicturesOnGold. I recently purchased a St. Francis gold plated pendant, inscribed with Protect My Dogs. Service was excellent, and have gotten lots of compliments on my pendant. I'll definitely order from Pictures on Gold again. Daniel was especially helpful. Thanks for a great product." Judy"
-- Judy Rice

"The Items I bought are flawless. I bought the religious medals St. Jude and St.Anthony COLOR EXCLUSIVE. There was a mistake in this order. One chain was the wrong size. When I called the Gentleman on the phone was very pleasant and professional and corrected the problem. I "Would" order from Pictures on Gold again. I would encourage Catholic Churches to look into ordering their patron Saint Name sake. I am trying to get my Church to do this. If you do order anything from this site you wilo not be sorry. Thanks Bill B"
-- William
