New Building Project

Click Image for Building Site Map

From its founding in 1979 through the construction of the original building (affectionately known as the ‘Hay Barn’) to the building of the first church in 1993, Fr. Roger Miller, founding pastor, led Holy Spirit Parish through its early years.  In 1998 Fr. Miller retired for health reasons; he went home to the Lord in March of 2005.

Fr. Michael Tierney was assigned as the second pastor of Holy Spirit.  A planning process was initiated in the fall of 1999 and eventually the decision was made to move to a new location.  In April of 2005 the congregation broke ground for our new building after selecting Straub Construction Company as the general contractors. The new church which was dedicated in September of 2006 by Bishop Robert Finn.

The tower that you see as you approach the building is intended to be a ‘beacon’ drawing people to the Church, and to a relation with the Lord.  The gathering area (narthex) was planned to be large enough to accommodate the many activities that happen both before and after Mass.  The church proper (nave) seats 980 people with the weekday chapel that also serves as overflow seating.  Along with the office area, the multi-purpose room, meeting rooms, and classrooms, we have a building that is intended to house the many meetings, classes, and activities of a growing parish

Many new parishioners ask about a Catholic School.  It is certainly in our master plan, and it is one of the primary reasons we purchased 20 acres.  At this time we are still facing a major effort of debt retirement which will continue to occupy us for the foreseeable future.
