Directions

From Center City Johnstown
Follow PA Rt 271 north, approximately 2 miles.  The Conemaugh River will be crossed 3 times during these 2 miles; the third bridge crossing leads into East Conemaugh and Rt 271 becomes Main St in East Conemaugh.  The new gold domes should be visible when crossing the Conemaugh bridge, looking to the left side.  Proceed to the traffic light at the corner of Main and First Sts, turn left onto First.  The Church is located 1/2 block from this point on the left hand side.

From Pittsburgh area and points west of Johnstown
Follow US Rt 22 east to PA Rt 56 east, and follow this into Johnstown (entering city from West end).  Then follow directions from center city above.

Alternative from points west
Follow US Rt 30 east to Ligonier; then follow PA Rt 711 east approximately 3 miles to junction with Rt 271 north.  Follow this into Johnstown, and follow above directions from center city.

Utilizing US Rt 219 from the south
When following US Rt 219 towards Johnstown, Rt 219 merges briefly with PA Rt 56.  At this point, follow 56 west towards Johnstown.  Use the exit for Rt 271 (“Bedford St”) and follow directions above from center city Johnstown.

From points east of Johnstown involving US Rt 22
Follow Rt 22 west.  It is often easier to ignore the intersection with US Rt 219 and rather follow Rt 22 farther to the intersection with PA Rt 271.  At this point, follow Rt 271 south for app. 6 miles into East Conemaugh.  At the intersection of Main and First Sts, turn right onto First St.  The Church is 1/2 mile down on the left.

Take the turnpike exit for Bedford, US Rt 220.  Follow Rt 220 north a short way, to the exit for PA Rt 56 (and marked “Johnstown” among other things); follow Rt 56 west towards Johnstown.  At the merger with US Rt 219 north, continue on 56/219 and follow above directions (from points south).
