Welcome to Our Church

Through the grace of God and the commitment of the Catholic Community, we a parish devoted to imitating the life of Christ, as proclaimed in the Holy Gospels, offer a gathering place for worship, service, and fellowship for all.

As ambassadors for Christ, we serve the faithful, those who have strayed from the faith, and those who are not members of the faith community so that all may be reconciled to God.

2025 Holiday Basket Bazaar

On Saturday, November 8th from 1PM - 6PM & Sunday November 9th from 9AM - 2PM, our parish hall will be transformed into a basket wonderland with hopefully over 100 theme baskets. Now is a great time to pick a theme and begin to construct it. Baskets should have a retail of at least $25. Please cover your basket with clear cellophane so items are visible, attach a card with a list of contents and drop it off at the rectory by November 5th. We are also in need of baked goods to sell. Drop off to the hall after 12PM on Saturday and 8AM on Sunday. Please call the rectory, 814-443- 6574 if you are able to volunteer. CCD & Confirmation students can earn service hours by volunteering. Please help and do your part to make this event a great success! 



 
Church Chats!

All parishioners are invited to attend a new monthly series being offered at St. Peter’s Church. These hour-long sessions will focus on a timely topic related to our shared Catholic faith. Come grow in knowledge of our Church while learning practical ways to deepen your personal relationship with God. In addition to encouraging fellowship between parishioners, attendance at these Church Chats will count towards the two Discipleship Events requirement for our Confirmation Candidates. The first Church Chat will be led by Katie Bobby on the evening of Thursday, October 23rd from 6:30 - 7:30PM. Since October is the Month of the Rosary, the focus will be on the role of Mary in our Catholic faith. The last 20 minutes of the session will include praying the Rosary in front of the Blessed Sacrament. Please prayerfully consider attending. 


 
JOIN THE ADULT CHOIR!

We rehearse on Wednesday evenings at 6:30PM in the choir loft and we sing at 10AM Mass most Sundays. We accept new members at any time throughout the year. Ages beginning at 9th grade and up and all ability levels are welcome! We could use more high voices (sopranos) and low voices (basses), but all voice parts are welcome! If you are interested in joining, please call or text the choir director, Jason June, at 814-279-8132 or come to a rehearsal. To quote Saint Augustine, “To sing is to pray twice.”
