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 and music on 1st, 3rd, and 4th Sundays. On 2nd Sundays, we meet in the Guild Room for classes, discussions, and other ways of being in community. Join us for UU American Roots, a class offered for 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.

Next Up: Live Oak's Sunday Program

Sunday, March 8, 4:00 p.m.
Adult Religious Education Class (not worship): UU American Roots
Guest Teacher: Emily Stoper

A free, open history class (for adults) meeting on 2nd Sundays in the Guild Room (behind the sanctuary building) of Christ Episcopal Church. We can provide large-print handouts, but we need advance notice that they are needed. More info here. We are delighted to present this program, taught by Emily Stoper, a retired Cal-State EB professor and long-time member of the First Unitarian Church of Oakland. Emily has taught (and revised) this class a number of times at several churches.

NOTE: Childcare will be available with advance notice (by March 5th). Please email Darlene Pagano, if you are bringing children (and tell her their ages). There is no charge, of course. We just need to be sure to have coverage for children. Thank you.
