The Holy Spirit Parish
Holy Spirit Parish is a small Roman Catholic Parish in south-central Kentucky. We were founded in 1953 and our church was erected in 1968. We have 76 registered families, with a wide variety of ages and ethnic backgrounds. The majority of our parishioners are transplants from other areas, who have settled here for jobs, to be near family and/or friends or to retire near gorgeous Lake Cumberland. In the summer we welcome many visitors who come to Lake Cumberland. One of the gifts of our parish is our hospitality. We try to make everyone feel welcome and a part of our Eucharistic celebrations.

MARRIAGE MOMENTS:“Simon, son of John, do you love me?” (John 21:16) Sometimes married couples feel they have to fish for compliments or for those magic words, “I love you.” Can you be the first to say them to your beloved today? If you missed being first, try being the last. |
