Celebration Lutheran Church sponsors Holy Hikes-Northeast Ohio, a regional chapter of a national eco-ministry. These liturgical hikes take place at area parks on the last Saturday of each month. Check the Facebook page for locations (you need not have a Facebook account). Hikes begin at 10 a.m., are typically 1.5-2 miles long, and include Holy Communion. Dogs on leash are usually welcome in the parks we choose.
Update: a number of people have asked us to post hike locations here on the website, in addition to Facebook. The hike leader will try to remember to update this page! But if dates are lagging, check Facebook (Holy Hikes-Northeast Ohio), as well.
