We at The Collegiate Commons know it is vital for students to remain connected to religious institutions as a way to find community and grow spiritually while in college as they become independent, so we put together a list of religious institutions near downtown Indianapolis and other important information for students to know.
Note: this is not an exhaustive list, and will be updated periodically. If you noticed anything we missed, please contact thecollegiatecommons@gmail.com.
