Holy Spirit Parish will be offering a 7-part video series entitled "The Search" beginning mid-November.  This series is produced by the Augustine Institute and is for adults.  The Search leads people to the deepest questions of the human heart, exploring the meaning and purpose of life with a visually stunning an intellectually stimulating approach.  The Search guides viewers through a crescendo of 7 episodes examining life-death, sorrow-happiness, science-faith. Astrophysicists, psychologists, astronauts, neuroscientists, professors, athletes, artists and the beauty of the cosmos all point to one big conclusion: Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church.  Each episode averages 30 minutes. 

Don't go through The Search alone! The Search is best experienced with others, so join us and bring a friend.  Following each episode, we will be continuing with a group discussion.

The Search will be offered at a couple of times during the week to accomodate various work and family schedules.  To participate you may sign-up in the Commons at Holy Spirit or call the office (406) 494-5078.

Our parish began in 1978 when a community began gathering for Mass at the Home Atherton Fire Hall.  After worshiping in two other locations over the years, we eventually moved to our current home just in time to celebrate Mass on Christmas Eve, 1993.  (For more about our story, click above).

You will find we are a vibrant community.  We have a wonderful diversity of ages, backgrounds, and interests; however, we are held closely to our Catholic faith, our belief in the risen Lord and the celebration of the Sacraments.  We strive to be a people
of hospitality, joy and service.  It is our hope that everyone will feel welcomed in our parish, and that you will find support and encouragement on your journey of faith. 

Again, welcome!
