Welcome!

We create loving community
through worship and service to others.

Live Oak is a progressive religious community in the heart of Alameda. We walk diverse paths to find meaning and purpose, but are united by our belief in the worth and dignity of all, and the obligation to express our faith through acts of justice and compassion. Join us as we create a diverse, spirit-growing, justice-seeking community.

We look forward to welcoming you in our fully wheelchair accessible home: 1700 Santa Clara Ave., Alameda (in the Christ Episcopal Church building at the corner of Santa Clara and Grand).

Join us in the sanctuary for worship on 1st, 3rd, and 4th Sundays. On 2nd Sundays, we meet in the Guild Room for other activities. Join us for a class. UU American Roots, offered over the next 5 months (Feb-June, 2015) on 2nd Sundays. (The Guild Room is in the building just behind and a little to the left of the main sanctuary building.) Things vary on 5th Sundays. Watch here for information about them.

Children and youth join the adults for the first 15 minutes of each worship service, which includes music and a story for all ages. Children and their teachers then head to their classrooms. Several times a year, the children stay and participate with the adults in a multi-generational service. Children are, of course, always welcome to stay with a parent in the service. Likewise, parents are always welcome to go into the classroom with their child(ren).

Supper after: Many friends and members stay after our programs for a fellowship meal. Everyone is invited to stay to get to know us and to break bread together. We hope you will join us.

Images of God
Guest Worship Leader: Pam Gehrke; Worship Associate: Richard Stromer

Whatever we might believe about God, most of us carry images of the divine from various sources we have encountered on life's journey. We will explore a variety of these images and consider how they influence our lives.

Pam Gehrke is a Unitarian Universalist minister and a graduate of Starr King School for the ministry. Before attending seminary, she taught mythology and literature for many years. Pam's extracurricular interests include travel, music (choir), fiction, theater, movies, and yoga. She is a member of the Unitarian Universalists of San Mateo and lives in Burlingame.
