Join us for a special event featuring Cara Meredith, a writer, editor, and part-time minister. A former high school English teacher and nonprofit outreach director, she holds a master’s in theology and is author of The Color of Life (Zondervan) and the forthcoming Church Camp (Broadleaf). She and her family call East Oakland home.  

Join us on the first Sunday in April to hear Cara's inspiring insights and experiences as she leads us in a special teaching.

As we bid farewell to winter and welcome the blossoming beauty of spring, Haven Berkeley joyfully invites you to our Easter celebration! Join us as we commemorate the spirit of resurrection and renewal amidst the vibrant colors of the season.

This year's festivities promise to be unforgettable, filled with laughter, music, and cherished moments with loved ones. Mark your calendars for a special celebratory service followed by a delightful party on the grounds of Washington Elementary. Our morning begins with a heartwarming service at our regular time and place, 10:30 am - 12 pm, where we'll be joined by the talented Berkeley High Jazz combo, featuring our very own Haven-ite, Elliott Martens. Experience the fusion of traditional worship and lively jazz as their ensemble enriches our celebration.

After the service, the excitement continues outdoors with our Easter Celebration from 12 - 2 pm. Indulge in a potluck lunch shared amongst friends and neighbors, and don't miss the thrill of the Easter Egg Hunt for children ages 5th grade and younger.

To ensure every child's participation, we kindly request families to contribute 10 to 12 pre-filled eggs per child. While all eggs are welcome, we encourage non-sugary treats to promote healthier choices. Visitors to Haven are warmly welcomed to join in the egg hunt festivity!

The celebration wouldn't be complete without the harmonious melodies of live jazz from the Berkeley High jazz combo. Let their enchanting tunes serenade you as we revel in the spirit of Easter together.

Come one, come all, and join us in embracing the joy of Easter at Haven Berkeley. Whether in person or via Zoom, we look forward to celebrating this meaningful day with you and your loved ones.
