First Sundays for Anti-racism and Anti-Oppression

Racial Identity Caucusing & Potluck

First Sunday of Every Month | 12:00 to 2:00 pm

Starr King Room

All are welcome. Potluck begins as soon as possible after worship service.
No need to bring food to participate. Childcare available upon request.

Racial identity is not shaped in a neutral environment. Caucusing provides supportive space where:

· Self-identified people of color explore how their identity forms in response to racial oppression.

· People who identify as white explore how their identity forms in response to white supremacy.

· People who identify as multiracial with white European ancestry may participate with the caucus of their choice or create another.

As people of faith on a spiritual journey toward wholeness, we gather to understand the dynamics of racial identity and to overcome barriers and oppression created by an individual, institutional, and cultural racism.

We warmly invite you to join us!

Sponsored by Journey Toward Wholeness Transformation Team. For more info contact jtw@uuoakland.org.

Meeting on the third floor around the board table in the OYC space.

Keep the Spirit Moving Forward
March 10, 2019 at 10:20 am Laila Ibrahim, Rev. Sheri Prud'homme, Worship Associate Jim Briggs
Following a month long celebration of the congregation’s 150th anniversary and the release of her book, Gather the Spirit, Rev. Sheri Prud’homme will share some reflections on the history of our church and its implications for our future. Laila Ibrahim will introduce our three endowment funds and challenge us to secure the future of the congregation for the next 150 years. Let’s keep the spirit moving forward! Joyful Noise and Half a Dozen of the Other will sing! This is a Time for All Ages Sunday.

The Liturgical Power of Church
10:20 am
Pastor Jacqueline, Rev. Sheri, Suzanne Van Houten, Worship Associate Debby Kaplan

Worship offers every soul who participates a place where we can be, breathe in and be “in-spired”; opportunities to breathe out and cast off or “ex-pire” that which no longer serves our common good; and experiences to breathe with or “con-spire” with spirit. Joyful Noise sings and Crescendo Choir offers their rendition of “My Old Brown Earth.” This is a Time for All Ages Sunday.
