<b>Sun., April 21, 2019 (yes, on Easter!), Listening Sharing Circle, 12:00 noon to 1:00 PM, Starr King Room. </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are many changes and transitions happening in our church life! Please join us for a Listening/Sharing Circle, a forum intended to provide congregants a spiritual container in which everyone can speak what is on their heart and mind about current events in the life of our church.  Members of the Board of Trustees and the Ministerial Search Committee will be there.

<pre><code><br /><b>Pop-up Choir's last sing is May 25 for this church year. </b><span style="font-weight: 400;">What is UUOakland's Pop-up Choir?  Pop-up Choir is fun, spirit-filled group-singing, once a month in the Sunday morning service.  We meet at </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">9:15 am</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Sunday in the Sanctuary, learn the (easy) songs, sing in that morning's service, and you're happily done by </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">11:30</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">-ish. If you WANT to sing, regardless of your skill or comfort level, this is the choir for you.  No on-going commitment or rehearsals – except it's so much fun you're gonna want to do it again next month. </span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Contact <a href="popupchoir@uuoakland.org">Susan Keiter</a> for more info.</span>

<strong>What's Next: Candidating Week! </strong><span style="font-weight: 400;">Our ministerial candidate, Rev. Theresa Soto, will be at church every day from 4/27 to 5/5 (9 days) and is eager to hear your thoughts and dreams. Exact schedule TBA, but they will be preaching on 4/28 and 5/5. Please make time to attend our special congregational meeting on 5/5 when all members of the church will be asked to make the important decision whether to call Rev. Soto as our next minister. This is not a mere formality but a momentous decision in the life of our church.</span>
