Upcoming events

  • Holy Hikes starts this Saturday

    Saturday, May 16 10am

    St. Michael’s of the Valley, Ligonier and St. Francis in the Fields, Somerset are partnering again this year to host Holy Hikes of Southwestern Pennsylvania, an official chapter of Holy Hikes.

    This first hike of the season will be held at Laurel Summit State Park, located between Rector and Somerset. We will hike the Spruce Flats Bog Trail (0.8 miles out and back) and the Picnic Area Trail (1.5 miles). This hike is easy and YOUNG FAMILY FRIENDLY.

    During the hike, we hold a service of Holy Communion, stopping along the trail to read the scripture and say the prayers, while sharing the Eucharist at the end of the hike or at another appropriate setting along the trail. It’s a lovely way to have a worship service!

    In addition, we believe this is an important opportunity for members of the Diocese to invite friends, family, and neighbors–especially those who might not want to attend a Sunday morning service–to something a bit different. We have found it’s a wonderful way to build community beyond our four walls. 

    If you have questions about any of this season’s hikes, please contact ministry team member Katie Ong
