Holy Spirit started in 1989 as a Mission of the Holy Redeemer in Kanata. Masses were held in the Holy Spirit Elementary School. On August 20, 1994 Holy Spirit officially became a Parish with Father Frank Scott as the first pastor. While still planning to build a church, Masses were held in Sacred Heart High School starting December 1, 2001.
Archbishop Marcel Gervais presided over the ground breaking for this new church on April 1, 2007. The first Masses were on the weekend of Palm Sunday March 15 and 16, 2008 and Archbishop Terrance Prendergast consecrated the church on March 31, 2008.
Designed by Stittsville architect David Mailing, it features an 800-seat worship area, a foyer area with a baptismal font, a Blessed Sacrament chapel, offices and a parish hall.
