Spotlighting the transformative work of the Plymouth United Church of Christ in Oakland, California. Led by the dynamic Rev. Marjorie Matthews, this vibrant community is a beacon of hope and healing for residents of Oakland.
"No matter who you are or where you are on life's journey, you are welcome here," says Rev. Matthews, who shares her deep commitment to social justice and community healing, emphasizing the church's mission of inclusion and advocacy for marginalized individuals.
Central to the church's mission is the concept of Justice-Making—a powerful call to action that encourages members to actively participate in building a world where dignity and respect for all people are realized. Rev. Matthews invites individuals to see themselves as beloved children of God and "co-conspirators" in the pursuit of justice.
One of the hallmarks of Plymouth United Church of Christ is its Sunday morning musical entertainment, featuring the soul-stirring sounds of jazz music. Join us as we explore the intersection of faith, social justice, and music at the Jazz and Justice Church of Oakland.
