Christmas Eve Celebration
Thursday, December 24, 6:00 to 7:00 PM

We are so excited for Christmas Eve! It will be different for sure, but being together is one of our greatest gifts. We invite you to Christmas Eve for carols and thoughts of hope and care. This year we will wander toward the gifts of science and Christmas and also ask the question, “What is the spirit of Christmas?” Come help us answer. We’ll have a candlelight ritual at the end. If you need a candle, or if you are available to help with a reading, let us know in an email to office@uuoakland.org.

Church Office Closed: Thursday, December 24, through Friday, January 1

If you have a pastoral care emergency, please reach out to Evelyn Sheridan, pastoral care coordinator at pastoralcare@uuoakland.org, or to Pastor Theresa, by email at revsoto@uuoakland.org or via phone call or text at 510-473-SOTO (510-473-7686).
