Ten Commandments Hike
The Ten Commandments Hike is an annual interfaith event, a five-mile hike with stops at five houses of worship, each where a religious leader or designated speaker provides a 15-20 minute presentation, introducing youth to their faith and place of worship, and discussing two of the Ten Commandments.
This year, the Ten Commandments Hike tours houses of worship along its northern route in Tallahassee’s Killearn area:
