On October 15,1925, Archbishop Edward Joseph Hanna officially announced the establishment of new parish in Oakland, Saint Theresa, “Church of the Little Flower of Jesus.” We will be celebrating our 100th Jubilee Year throughout 2025, honoring our founders, the priests and religious who advanced the parish, and the generations of parishioners whose contributions led us to this amazing milestone.
The Parish 100th Jubilee Planning Committee has been working to develop a calendar of inclusive celebratory events throughout 2025. These events will be both religious celebrations and social gatherings for parishioners and school families. Check out the Events and save the dates of the activities you want to attend!
The Parish 100th Jubilee Planning Committee is still planning new activities, and we need your help with these events. If you want to assist with some of these festivities or have ideas about a new activity, please contact the 100th Anniversary Planning Committee: [email protected]
