About this church
Trinity Lutheran Church is an Oakland congregation describing itself as a welcoming, healing community participating with God in care for the world and all people. Its mission connects worship and God’s grace with unconditional love, compassion, forgiveness, reconciliation, hope, comfort, and healing. Music, education, prayer, community service, disaster relief, and special giving offer ways to participate beyond weekly worship.
Hybrid Holy Communion begins every Sunday at 10:15 a.m. in the sanctuary at 650 Alma Avenue and on Zoom. Worship includes song, Scripture, prayer, a sermon, mutual encouragement, and Communion. Fellowship follows every service, and the first Sunday adds coffee and refreshments while in-person participants gather around the Zoom screen to include remote friends. Trinity’s annual WE ARE OAKLAND benefit concert links music and service; the 2026 concert raised $8,058 for SOS Meals on Wheels and was also livestreamed. Public pages do not specify worship length, dress, parking, accessibility, nursery care, children’s or youth schedules, child check-in, volunteer screening, Communion eligibility, or Zoom delay. The directory’s longer name is reflected in an accounting address on the benefit page, while current public-facing pages consistently use “Trinity Lutheran Church,” which is the clearest visitor-facing name.
