• The Monsignor Killian Legacy Society   In honor of the priest who founded Holy Name of Jesus Catholic Church in the early 1900s, our Monsignor Peter Killian Legacy Society recognizes parishioners who plan legacy gifts to the church in their estate.   Special decorative engraved plaques on the church narthex Legacy Wall distinguish generous parishioners who become part of the Monsignor Killian Legacy Society by leaving a gift to Holy Name in their will or by making a single donation of $5,000 or more.    Names of Society parishioners will be perpetually displayed so we may remember them, honor their commitment to Holy Name, and pray for their souls.   Our hope is that the Monsignor Killian Legacy Society will grow as future generations experience the beauty and love of our parish.

   
   

  Leaving a Legacy                A cornerstone of faith for over 100 years, Holy Name of Jesus Catholic Church continues to grow through the generosity of our parishioners – past and present.            Planned Gifts Help the Future Endure   For many generations, Holy Name of Jesus Catholic Church has made Christ present in the world by providing a welcoming home for so many people of faith.  Our parish has survived world wars, economic downturns, and countless other challenges, largely due to the support of its parishioners.  As we look toward the future, we need to build a strong financial foundation to sustain our growing parish population, school enrollment, and community programs.    As we continue to plan for Holy Name’s future, we ask you to consider including us in your estate planning.  Your thoughtful gift creates a legacy that will benefit generations to come.                          Every Gift is Welcome   After you’ve cared for your family in your will, we ask that you also remember your parish family with a planned donation.  Bequeathing your gift of financial assets or personal property leaves a very special and eternal legacy.    Unrestricted gifts – large or small – help to sustain the growth of our parish.  You don’t have to be wealthy to give.  Every gift is welcome.  Every gift is a blessing.                      Expert Advice Available   Planned giving advice is available from professionals within the Indianapolis archdiocese who specialize in financial planning, tax advice, and estate law.  These experts can help you complete a new will or adjust an existing one to include planned giving.  Contact the archdiocese directly, or the Holy Name Parish Office staff can help to connect you.
