St Helen Catholic Church — Local services in Glendale

I must say that the people here are friendly and welcoming. HOWEVER, I don't think it's appropriate for the young lady carrying the body of Christ to wear booty shorts. I love the casual dress, but the elders need to tell some women and young ladies how to dress! She should have not had short shorts on in church. I’m sorry to say but not once did I feel the spirit of God here!? I don’t know.. I just didn’t feel it in this church.

I rather find a church that takes the narrow path and put actual effort...

I thank the true Soldiers and Angels of the Lord of St Vincent de Paul and hold them in my Prayers eternally. Thank you so very much!!! You are soo...

I need to make an appointment to meet the priest. The other parishioners seem to be very nice and welcoming without being overbearing as some church goers can be. There's a small gift shop on site which the shopper in me loves. They have a nice selection of rosarys too. I was very sad to leave St George and I was sure I would never find a church I would love just as much but the Lord does know what you need and provides for that. Thank you St Helens for being there when I...
