Serve the City
City Engagement Ministry
Resurrection Oakland loves the Town! We seek to be a church that loves and serves our city as Christ has loved and served us.
We partner with several organizations in Oakland. We have one-time and ongoing opportunities to get involved. Questions? Contact Amanda, Director of City Engagement.

In each monthly episode, we’ll talk with our ministry partners and explore together how Christianity gives us an unique vision for loving our city. Listen wherever you get your podcasts: YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Spotify.
