Congratulations to all!
Oakland's Mayor Barbara Lee and the new Oakland Police Chief James Beere were present to participate in the festivities and acknowledge and celebrate St. Paul's 150+ years history of serving our community that stared in mid century 1800s with the founding of a school for local children excluded from public education. Fr Wilson described some of St. Paul's history and presented our first-ever Brightest Lights Award to Paula Hawthorn and Archdeacon Carolyn Bolton. THANK YOU to our many volunteers, to everyone who attended and to all who contributed to help us keep St. Paul's light shining bright! |
For more than 150 years St. Paul’s Episcopal Church has been one of Oakland’s brightest lights.
When it began it schooled Chinese students who were prevented from going to public schools. Today its ministries feed more than 2000 of our neediest neighbors each year, provide more than $20,000 to help fund scholarships and buy school supplies to underserved school children, work with OPD to make our community safer and spread the joy of music throughout the East Bay. In supporting this Gala, we are pledging to expand the great work that is being done. – Barbara Lee, Mayor of Oakland |

ST. PAUL’S PANTRY OF HOPE: Feeding our neighbors
Food Distribution has resumed on 2nd and 4th Sundays.
Contact the Rev. Carolyn Bolton to volunteer.
The Pantry of Hope gives 80-100 bags of food twice a month to our neighbors throughout the year (over 2,000 bags of food). Last Christmas day we delivered over 400 prepared hot meals to our neighbors in need. With the cost of food on the rise and the social safety net shrinking, the need is great.
Efforts like this require both a tremendous volunteer effort and money to purchase groceries and meals. In this season of generosity, please consider making a gift to the St. Paul’s Pantry of Hope to make outreach like this possible.
You can make your donation by credit card or bank transfer HERE (choose Pantry of Hope from the drop down menu) or by check mailed to the church office or placed in the offering plate any Sunday before Christmas, with “Pantry of Hope” in the memo.
Please also consider volunteering. Contact Archdeacon Carolyn Bolton for more information.
Video streams for services are now on our YouTube Channel HERE.
