| Welcome to the Web-Site of St. Helen Church In Shively Kentucky
Welcome to the St. Helen web-site. St.
Helen is one of the oldest parishes in the
southwest part of Louisville and Jefferson
County, KY. This year we celebrated our
110th year as a parish.
We are currently embarking on a new path.
In June of 2007, St. Matthias parish was clustered
with St. Helen. In June of 2008, the parish of
St. Denis will be joining this cluster. These
clusters were formed as a result of the Archdiocesan
Reorganization Plan. It is also the direction
of this plan that these three parishes be merged
into one parish during the next three years.
Obviously this process has brought about some
changes. The most recent change was the
combining of masses at St. Helen and St. Matthias.
Currently the 4 p.m. Saturday mass is being
celebrated at St. Matthias which is located at 2208
Dixie Highway. The 9 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.
masses are celebrated at St. Helen at 4005 Dixie
Highway. When St. Denis joins the cluster in
June of 2008, an adjustment to times and locations
of the masses will again happen.
As good stewards of God's many gifts, we are
working together to establish a new parish that will
meet the sacramental, spiritual, physical and
educational needs of the people of this area.
God Bless You,
Fr. Tom
