Resurrection Oakland Church gathers in Downtown Oakland with a focus on the good news of Jesus, community and service to the city. Pastors Brent Webster and Dave Lee lead a team serving worship, children, teenagers and adult groups. ResKids provides care and Bible teaching from infancy through fifth grade at both Sunday services, and ResYouth welcomes sixth-twelfth graders. Community groups help people form friendships and grow in faith. The Diaconal Ministry Team offers practical care, while city-engagement partnerships and college ministries provide further ways to connect and serve. People exploring Christianity are welcome to bring their questions.
