St. Pauls Episcopal Church - Oakland (CA)

Miriam Smith Ive been attending since the almost the beginning, and the church hasnt lost its focus even as its grown: to love Oakland as God has loved us. Its so heartwarming to be part of church that makes an effort to not only welcome all into the church to get to know this amazing God we follow but to purposefully, wholeheartedly, and unreservedly take God to Oakland.

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

R Onilozay RECOVERY MEETING FOR EMOTIONS... I attend (only) Recovery International meetings here (Mondays @ 12:30) which are wonderful. For those of us who need a community and help with our emotions of anxiety and / or anger. I learn so much that actually works and Ive made friends who understand, really understand. The format is a bit different from 12-step if youre used to that, so it took a few meeting s to get the flow so to speak. .. but it is an amazing tool Ive just added to my recovery. Meetings in the east bay are Monday here, Wed in Oakland also, Sat at Kaiser bldg off Howe & MacArthur @ 1:30. Please come the group is small. Look for the side red door. (I have no religious affiliation with the church).

Will L The experience was not bad. The community was very welcoming and nice. I would come back again.

Natalie Lowe We were looking for a church that was grounded in biblical principals, personable, warm, had opportunities to help us grow and we found that in Vive Oakland. The campus pastors Pastor Bobby and Abi are the most personable, loving, and intentional pastors I have met since going to church all my life. They truly care about their members and are kind, biblically sound, and relatable good people. Come check it out, it is a great place to encounter real people seeking after God and His presence is alive in this church.

Vivian Prater Sacred Heart Church is my Parish church. Our Pastor and the fellow Priests are really genuine people who welcome everyone! My youngest granddaughter just received her First Holy Communion on May 4th in Benicia and celebrated it May 5th at Sacred Heart Church!
