Saint Helena coloring page: August 18th

Helena was the wife of a Roman general and the mother of Constantine the Great. Shortly after she became empress, Helena converted to Christianity. She devoted her life to charitable acts, and helped build churches across Rome and the Holy Land. During one trip to the Holy Land, Helena discovered the True Cross. Legend tells us that Helena found the seamless garment of Christ, as well, on a trip to Jerusalem. Some  even claim that Helena found the rope that tied Christ to the Cross and the nails from the Crucifixion.
