As with everything in St. Helena's Church, the beautiful stained glass windows reflect the vision and the faith of our beloved founding pastor. Monsignor Arthur J. Scanlan. Throughout Christian history, the stained glass artwork in churches and cathedrals has presented visible lessons of faith. The beauty of the windows mirrors the beauty of our Catholic faith.

In our church, each window has three sections:

·                     the middle rectangular pane represents one of the Mysteries of the Rosary;

·                     the bottom circular pictures tell the story of the life of our holy patroness St. Helena;

·                     the top circular pictures represent the saints.

This section of our Church website beautifully reproduces the artwork of our stained glass windows. The first section presents the Mysteries of the Rosary; the second section, the life of St. Helena; the third, the representations of the saints.

May Our Lord be praised as new generations reflect on the beauty of these windows and the stories of faith they represent. May these windows always be a testimony of the faith and the love of Msgr. Arthur Scanlan for the people of St. Helena's Parish.          Msgr. Thomas B. Derivan
