Join us for a Spiritual Formation talk, followed by dessert and discussion on August 22 from 7:00 to 9:00 PM at Resurrection Oakland.  For this event, we will have a special guest speaker, Gary Quan LMFT. He will be speaking on "Gaining Ownership of Your Story." 

Have you been wondering where your place in this life is or has been?  Who has been in ownership of your life story? How do THEY think you are doing? What does God think about you?  Gary will bring his faith and clinical expertise to bear as he helps us process these questions and more. 

Gary Quan has over 18 years of experience working to support couples, and families across cultural and socio-economic spectra in a variety of settings.  He currently works as Core Faculty at California Institute of Integral Studies while teaching at University of San Francisco and Western Seminary.  In April, he wrote and published Asian American Chronicles:  Tales of Mental Health and Hope with a team of therapists. He serves primarily AAPI patients with Christian Counseling Center (Los Altos and Sunnyvale) and provides teletherapy for Daybreak Health (kids and teens) and Octave (adults).  

Let’s celebrate back to school for our ResKids, ResYouth, and college students. Join us for Mister Softee ice cream outside after BOTH services! Are you going to choose sprinkles, oreo dust or a dipped cone?!?!

Join us for a day of fall fun for the whole family at our ResKids Family Fall Fest! Whether you're racing in a potato sack, brushing a friendly horse, or enjoying a tractor ride around the grounds, there’s something for everyone to enjoy! Bring your kids, bring your friends, and don’t forget your fall spirit! We can’t wait to celebrate the season together with fun, laughter, and community. Tickets are $5/person and include a taco lunch, drinks, a snow cone, and unlimited bounce house fun! Registration required.

Many of you are new to our church. We are so glad you found us, and we would love to welcome you. Join us for dinner on a Friday night to meet our pastors, enjoy a meal, learn how you can get more connected to our community, and hear about our mission to be a church in and for Oakland. Dinner will be on the 3rd floor of the Wakefield building around the corner and childcare will be held at the church.

Please RSVP by Sunday, 9/14 if you need childcare, and please RSVP for this event by Wednesday, 9/17 so we know how much food to prepare.

We seek to be a church that loves and serves Oakland. Join us for our second annual ministry fair featuring representatives from ResOak's nine Oakland-based partners:

• MLK Jr. Elementary School

• Harbor House

There are many ways to get involved and serve. Learn more and find out where your gifts (and schedule!) work best.

This event will be held directly across the street from the church after both services on the 2nd floor of 1714 Franklin. Coffee and a light breakfast will be provided.
