Faith and Mission 1871-2020 is a comprehensive, exciting account of how St. Paul’s began a century and a half ago as the second Episcopal parish in Oakland, grew to be an important part of the city’s religious and community life, and, in the late twentieth century, came to represent the best in progressive approach-es to social and religious engagement—a tradition that has carried on strongly throughout its most recent fifty years.
Elizabeth Hook’s endeavors as our archivist led first to a series of articles in the church newsletter that treated various aspects of our history. About three years ago, she and Robert Knapp took up the larger project of editing these articles into book form and adding various chapters on more recent history. Then Vicki Larson volunteered her considerable graphic design talents to turn our manuscript into a lovely masterpiece while also adding vital details and images to what Liz and Robert had put together.
