A slice of old Europe in North Oakland. Beautiful liturgies!
Lovely church with respectable Mass and always dependable homilies.
Beatifull spiritual great people.
My friend introduced me to this place, and I had some major anxiety my first time attending because I'm not very religious, and the last Catholic experience I had was Sunday school as a child - where our teacher/nun would, despite it being super cliché, whack us with a ruler when we misbehaved.
This could not have been more different. The community is warm and inviting, even to filthy heretics like me, who can't help but ask all the uncomfortable questions that polite company never would.
I've been struggling with severe, clinical depression lately, and Father Michael Sweeny, in a casual, 5-minute conversation, led me to an epiphany that has been tremendously helpful.
10/10 would receive sage spiritual guidance again
