Sunday Worship
St. Brigid’s offers weekly worship on Sunday evenings at 5pm at Oceanside Sanctuary Church (204 S Freeman St, Oceanside CA 92054). We’re excited to introduce a new way of worshipping at these services, combining the informal and conversational nature of our Dinner Church services with the beauty of the Holy Eucharist. Services will include either a full meal (on 1st and 3rd Sundays) or light refreshments (other Sundays).
Services begin at 5pm and are held in the cafe room at Oceanside Sanctuary, located in downtown Oceanside at 204 S Freeman St, Oceanside CA 92054. Parking is available in the church parking lot, or free street parking is also available.
On Dinner Church Sundays, feel free to bring something to share for the potluck, or just bring yourself! Also please contact us if you have any dietary restrictions or other accessbility needs, and we will try to accomodate them as best we can.
Resonance
Resonance is a free, all-ages event at St. Brigid’s that builds community through creative expression.
It’s a space for all creatively-inclined people — artists, musicians, writers, and more — to showcase their work and to practice spontaneous creation together.
Humanity Art
Want to connect with your neighbors in need through the joyful power of art? Join us on Wednesday mornings for Humanity Art, a community of care and creativity.
Every Wednesday, Humanity Showers creates a space where neighbors help neighbors in Oceanside by providing showers, haircuts, clothing, and hygiene supplies along with a hot breakfast for free to anyone in need. We’ve joined this amazing community by setting up an art table with drawing and coloring supplies, t-shirts and stencils, and more.
Doing what we do best at St. Brigid’s — connecting with others and sharing God’s love through art and creativity — has allowed us to make lots of new friends and to hear their stories. It’s a great way to build community - and you’re invited to join us!
