Social Justice Ministry
Here at the Oakland Center for Spiritual Living, we are actively working to build a world that works for everyone! The Social Justice Ministry’s mission is to love and support our community through spiritual practices, education, and collaborative action that elevate diversity, equity, and inclusion at our center. Whether you’re seeking connection, collective growth, or a meaningful way to make a difference in our community, we invite you to join us. Together, we can make an impact that ripples out expanding love and understanding globally!
The Women's Spiritual Empowerment Group
The Women’s Spiritual Empowerment Group is a regularly scheduled opportunity for women to meet to discuss, explore, and share insights into their Divine Feminine and how spirituality affects their lives. Reverends Geri Carder and Katherine Saux facilitate a sacred, safe space for participants to be open and vulnerable with each other while practicing active listening, nonjudgment, and compassion. Topics for discussion range from the simple and humorous to the provocative and profound. It’s not unusual for a session to include both tears and laughter. No pre-registration is required, and women are welcome to attend whenever they can if regular participation isn’t possible. WSEG sessions are held on scheduled Sundays after regular services, making it easy to grab a seat and enjoy the energy. The WSEG is supported by Love Donations rather than set fees.
