How Did St Helena Become A Saint?
St. Helena lived a very pious and holy life. At a very advanced age she made a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. While there, she located many of the sites made holy by Our Lord and recovered relics, which she then sent to Rome and Constantinople. With help from her son, Emperor Constantine the Great, she had a number of churches and shrines constructed to commemorate special sites in the Holy Land. Upon her death she was proclaimed a saint by popular acclaim. There was no formal process at the time for canonization. That did not come until about the 12th century.
Why was canaan important?
God told Abraham to leave his homeland (around modern Iraq) and go to the Holy Land. He later promised that this land would belong to his descendants, a promise passed on to his grandson, Jacob (later renamed Israel). Jacob/Israel's children would move to Egypt during a famine, and were enslaved for centuries. During this time pagans in the Holy Land, called Canaanites, built various large cities and fortresses. However, God's promise to the Hebrews' ancestors remained in effect. Jewish religion traditionally says that the promise was, in fact, eternal: even when Hebrews cannot live in the land it belongs to them, being ordained by God as their special nation.
