mission statement & Goals

Goals of the Pastors of Oakland

Continue to develop our First Responders with Pastor Phyllis Scott and team.
We will utilize the resources within our membership and strategic partners as well as bring in other experts on various issues to educate and prepare us for discussion and strategizing.
Pastors of Oakland will attempt to connect with various civic groups with like minds and aspirations so as not to reinvent the wheel. But, rather to work towards strengthening communities throughout the City of Oakland.
We want to make our membership much more diversified including more of the hill pastors, Hispanics, Asians, women pastors and pastors from other cities who have a heart for Oakland.
We would like to consider making each of our executive committee members as representatives for geographical regions of the city in order to have a better means of communication and also work to strengthen and build the membership.
We want to develop a directory of all services and ministries represented within the Pastors of Oakland so that we can refer service to our congregants and other that inquire.
Develop a dedicated staff to implement the works, vision and goals of the Pastors of Oakland.
Incorporate more worship and prayer for one another including visiting one another's churches to strengthen and hold up one another and to help each other's ministry prosper.
Maintain an ongoing dialogue with our city officials and city agencies and strengthening our city liaison connection.
Rally our congregations for marches, prayer vigils and united action as indicated by our First Responders.
In the event that a pastor cannot attend a meeting, we request he send a representative from the pastoral staff of his church or a pastoral assistant in order to maintain continuity.
