Are you looking for a way to nurture your spirit and get involved? Are you ready to step up and help with making coffee or teaching? Do you have skills that would help our ministries run more smoothly?

Shared Ministry is how Live Oak UU Church grows programs that make a difference in people’s lives. Our minister and staff give leadership to the ministries but the programs thrive because of the talent and dedication of people who volunteer their time and energy to lead each activity listed below.

We empower you to grow in spirit. Transformation can happen in a church that fundamentally accepts you and then allows you to seek what you need. Each leader listed below links to an email if you want to ask for more information about the program.
