Constantine’s reign helped establish freedom for Christian worship, and he convened the First Ecumenical Council at Nicaea in 325. His mother, Saint Helen, is remembered for her devotion and pilgrimage to the Holy Land. Church tradition associates her with the finding of the Precious and Life-giving Cross. Their patronage supported the building of churches at sites connected with Christ’s earthly life. Their icon recalls the Cross as the sign of Christ’s saving victory and invites the faithful to use their opportunities and resources in service to God. Condition: New.
