Holy Spirit is a territorial parish of the Diocese of Lafayette in Indiana, located in Fishers, Indiana, a suburban community in Hamilton County northeast of Indianapolis. The parish is dedicated to the Holy Spirit, the third person of the Holy Trinity, whose descent upon the apostles at Pentecost is commemorated in the parish's title.

Founded in 1991 to serve Catholics in the rapidly growing Fishers area, Holy Spirit Parish has grown alongside its surrounding community. The parish operates as a diocesan territorial parish under the pastoral care of clergy of the Diocese of Lafayette in Indiana.

The parish community gathers for worship, sacramental life, and formation at its campus on Glaser Way, continuing a mission rooted in the Holy Spirit's ongoing work of guidance and renewal in the life of the Church.

History

Holy Spirit Parish was established in 1991 by the Diocese of Lafayette in Indiana in response to significant population growth in Fishers and the surrounding Hamilton County area.[1] As Fishers transformed from a small rural township into one of the fastest-growing suburbs of Indianapolis in the late twentieth century, the Diocese recognized the need for a new parish to serve the area's expanding Catholic population.

Specific details regarding the parish's founding pastor, early Mass sites, and the construction timeline of its current church building are not widely documented in publicly available sources. According to the parish's own materials, Holy Spirit continues to serve as a territorial parish for Catholics residing within its assigned boundaries in Fishers.[2]
