Commemorated on October 30
Saint Helen, a pious mother to her sons Stephen Milutin and Dragutin,
devoted her whole life to pious deeds after the death of her husband.
She built a shelter for the poor, and a monastery for those who wished
to live in purity and virginity. Near the city of Spich, she built the
Rechesk monastery and endowed it with the necessities.
Before her death, St Helen received monastic tonsure and departed to the Lord on February 8, 1306.
