STAY CONNECTED TO ST. HELEN DURING THIS TIME

During this unusual time, we want to ensure that everyone at St. Helen feels connected and informed. We are doing all that we can during this time to provide you with Daily Masses live stream and recorded by Fr. Jay at St. Helen, Zoom Bible Studies, copies of the emails we send out, letters from the Diocese of Cleveland, and so many more resources in and outside of St. Helen Church.

The Parish Office is now open Monday - Friday from 8:30 AM - 4:30 PM!

Daily & Recorded Masses at St. Helen

You can click on the above title to access the daily recordings of  Fr. Jay saying Mass. This page gives you a link to each date that  Fr. Jay has celebrated Mass, a link to the daily readings from the USCCB website, an Act of Spiritual Communion, Online Giving, and the Stations of the Cross on Fridays.

​We upload a recording of the Mass every day to the St. Helen Church Youtube channel and we are asking you to subscribe. It's free! Once we have 1000 subscribers, people will be able to watch live as Fr. Jay celebrates Mass.

Offertory Donations

​We have received a lot of inquiries about what you should do with the weekend offertory since there will not be Mass. 1. If you click the above title, you can make your usual contributions at the Online Giving page. It is a safe and secure site. You can make a one time donation or set it up so that it automatically occurs weekly or monthly. 2. We recently mailed letters and return envelopes so that you can put your regular offertory in the envelope and mail it back to St. Helen Church. 3. You can mail your contribution at any time to St. Helen Church at 12060 Kinsman Rd., Newbury OH, 44065. As always, we greatly appreciate your generosity and willingness to give so that we may continue to serve you. ​

The Chapel - It's Open for You!

​The Chapel will be unlocked from 6:30 am - 10:00 pm
Monday - Friday and from 9:00 am - 9:00 pm on Saturday and Sunday now through Easter. We ask that you are attentive and abide by the instructions that we have posted on the door going into the Chapel (you can also click on the above title to view them.) Please sanitize or wash your hands, sit at least 6 feet away from others, and no more than 10 people are permitted in the Chapel at the same time. This is to keep everyone healthy while still giving you the opportunity to come into the House of God.
​
We are happy to announce that we have a new adoration tabernacle in the chapel! When you enter the chapel - purify your hands - if the outer double wooden doors of the tabernacle is closed, you can open them up. There is glass protecting the Blessed Sacrament inside. After adoration, if you are the last
​one to leave the chapel, close the wooden doors, wipe the handles with the wipes that are on the celebrant chair, and purify your hands as you leave.
