WORSHP House
Oakland, California,
United States
 WORSHP stands for West Oakland Reconciliation and Social Healing Project. We are an interracial residential spiritual community currently comprised of radical Christians, contemplatives, UUs and seekers, who are committed to bearing witness to our own brokenness as fairly well-educated, mostly middle class people; the brokenness of our neighborhood; and the connections between those two. We seek to be good neighbors in the here and now and to listen for the Spirit's call regarding the healing of our neighborhood, city, and world.
