Prayer

Loving God,

We thank you for St Helena,

our Patron Saint,

A woman of faith who gave to others and built churches,

place for your praise.

She discovered the cross of Jesus,

the pillar of our faith.

With your help,

may we be a school united in St Helena’s spirit,

learning together and discovering your blessing each day,

striving to do something beautiful for you, our God, 

in all that we do and say.

Amen

St Helena, pray for us.

St Teresa of Calcutta, pray for us.

St. Helena was renowned for helping not only individuals, but entire communities through her works of charity. She often sought out to help the poor and destitute. She would visit churches and leave them with rich donations. 

St. Helena was a very devout servant of God, so much so that one would easily believe her to have been a follower of Jesus Christ from birth. Through her influence and work, Christianity continued to spread throughout the known world.​ St. Helena is the patron saint of new discoveries and her feast day is celebrated on August 18.
