Welcome!

We create loving community
through worship and service to others.

Live Oak is a progressive spiritual 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.

Next Live Oak UU Worship Service -- 4:00 p.m.

Worship: Sunday, July 5, at 4:00 p.m.
The Pursuit of Happiness
Worship Leaders: Richard Stromer and Darlene Pagano

This year we observe the 4th of July – the birthday of our nation – facing a threefold set of complex, intersectional challenges: the pandemic, the partial meltdown of the economy, and an unprecedented public uprising against racism and police brutality. Central to this holiday is the document it celebrates, the Declaration of Independence, and what is perhaps its most famous phrase, "the pursuit of happiness." How might the enormous challenges we are now facing affect both our understanding of what happiness is as well as how best to achieve it?

Join us on-line (not in person) (at our usual 4:00 p.m. meeting time), using your computer or smart phone and Zoom. We will send an email to our regular attendeess, members, and friends with a link and instructions on how to access the service.

If you are NOT on the Live Oak UU email list, please feel free to ask for access to this worship service by sending an email to info@uuliveoak.org. NOTE: You can also enjoy most of our services on our "Past Homilies & Reflections" page, a few days after each service. Anyone is welcome to listen to recordings of previous worship service elements.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, Live Oak Fellowship is practicing social distancing by meeting online only -- the first and third Sundays of each month at 4:00 p.m. To join us as a guest, please send an email asking for access to our on-line worship service. Send that email to info@uuliveoak.org no later than noon the day of an upcoming worship service. We'll be delighted to have you join us. It looks like this will be our method of gathering for a while. We will work together to create the same loving connection we have when we are able to gather in the sanctuary together.

--.--.--.--.--.--.--.--.--

We want everyone to be well and stay safe. We will continue to stay in touch with members and friends and to update this site with any news. Until then, please take care of yourselves, your friends and your loved ones. We are thinking of you and will stay connected in other ways. Be well. ~ from both your Live Oak UU Worship Team and the Live Oak UU Board of Trustees.
