Parish Background
Saints Peter and Paul Orthodox Church in America is a Christian community in the village of Crossingville in Pennsylvania serving believers in the entire Northwestern Pennsylvania area, and the only Orthodox Church in Crawford County. It was founded in 1921 by Slovak farming families, and today we are a growing and multi-ethnic community made up of both cradle and convert Orthodox Christians. Our services are in English and women are encouraged, but not required to cover their heads. We currently have around 100 members, and about 40 of them are children. We are in a beautiful rural setting, but easily accessible from the neighboring cities of Erie to the north and Meadville to the south. Pennwest University is 7 miles from our parish and Allegheny College in Meadville is only 16 miles. We have a very active community life and are always looking for ways to share the Apostolic Faith with the Crawford and Erie county areas.
