Saint Helen converted to Christianity later in her life after the 'Peace of the Church' in 313, which allowed Christians to practice religion without interference from officials. Her husband, Constantius, divorced her to pursue a political relationship. She was then left to care for their son, Constantine the Great, who would later become Emperor and legalize Christianity. She devoted herself to the Faith and became the Patroness of archaeologists because she unearthed the True Cross during a Pilgrimage to Syria Palaestina.
