Lake Merritt United Methodist Church - Oakland (CA)

Yusuf Abdul-Hakim My church and church family are totally awesome. Dr. Hawkins and his wife are the real deal!

Brandon Brookshire An excellent parish that offers the Tridentine Mass. I am blessed to have such a traditional and beautiful parish so close to where I live. If you are within the area and are longing for reverence and orthodoxy, this parish is well worth the trip. An apostolate the Institute of Christ the King, Sovereign Priests, they offer the Tridentine Mass daily and twice on Sundays, and confession prior to every Mass.

Tim Hohm Talk about authenticity! Sequoyah is truly community. Dynamic music with a live band was so good. The people are so friendly and the message was relevant, practical, and inspiring. I also LOVE the multi-cultural and multi-generational feel. It is truly a representation Oakland and the San Francisco Bay Area.

Val Perez The omnipotent God engaged in combat with His most bitter enemy, not in the strength of His own majesty, but in our human infirmity. Saint Leo the Great, Pope and Doctor of the Church

Carole Johnson Loving and welcoming congregation that welcomes children and adults to learn of and worship Jesus Christ.

Franceyez Jackson III Such a big help to our community. Whether feeding the needy or housing an event this historic site brings memories of when I was down on my luck in 1993 and they had a fried chicken luncheon. I was 7 years old.

Myisha Johnson Great church I enjoyed my attendance with worshiping the lord.

Macadamian SuperBaller I really like the ambiance. It would be good for service to be longer. Im still adjusting to being able to eat something and drink coffee during service even though Im sure that Jesus is probably cool with it.

Abolaji Adesoji Oaklife was the church I never knew I needed. It is the most inclusive representation of the christian faith I have ever encountered or heard of. Oaklife has positively improved my notion of faith, love and community. I greatly recommend it!
