Three color photographs on brown paper of SS Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church. The first one is taken from the outside, with the sign visible in the bottom left corner and the golden dome with the cross closer to the top right, with a streetlight on the right side. The second picture has the golden dome near the top left corner, with an enterance below it and a door in the bottom right with a tan car outside of it. the last photograph is of the sign itself, with the church in the background. The sign has two figures (presumably Constantine and Helen) in a circle under a cross, with the words "SS Constantine and Helen" printed to the right and "Greek Orthodox Church" underneath.

The Greek Orthodox Church is governed by a council of Bishops, called the Holy Synod. They are known for their tradition of iconography, and their use of the Divine Liturgy on Sundays. This church stood between 1948 and 1972.

Helen was the mother of Constantine. They are credited with placing Christianity at the heart of Western civilization. Helen is noted for her piety while Constantine was an Emperor in the Roman Empire when Christianity was becoming the dominant religion.
