St. Michael’s is a parish of the Orthodox Church in America in the Diocese of Eastern Pennsylvania under the Archpastoral guidance of His Grace, the Right Reverend, Bishop TIKHON.

Our beautiful church and facilities, nestled within the rolling hills of Pennsylvania, in the small city of Old Forge, enable the faithful of our area to worship God in the spirit and truth of the one Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Orthodox Faith.

Our website offers a glimpse into the life of our parish community through various photos and information, as well as providing information about the Orthodox Faith both for those who wish to learn more about their own faith and those non-Orthodox interested in Orthodox Christianity. If you have any inquiries, please feel free to contact the parish office. We will be happy to help you. 

Visit us anytime for services, we would love to have the opportunity to pray with you!

The Blessing of Our Lord Jesus Christ Be Upon You.
