Helgi Nelson, Sr.

Deacon

I am very excited to be able to minister in the Archdiocese of Baltimore.

Thanks to Archbishop William E. Lori for granting me the faculties to function as a deacon in my old hometown of Dundalk.  I was ordained as a deacon for the Diocese of Wheeling/Charleston in May of 2016.  I served the St. Vincent de Paul Parish in Berkeley Springs, WV for more than four years.  My wife Karen and I were very active with the WV Knights of Columbus and facilitated the annual Our Lady of Guadalupe Silver Rose Run each year since 2009.  

Karen and I now return to the Dundalk area to be closer to our children and grandchildren.  I was raised in the Our Lady of Hope Parish and we were married there by Father Michael Roach in 1977.  Karen and I moved to WV in 2001 and now we are back.

Karen and I are looking forward to many years serving the people of our new pastorate and surrounding community.
