Mount Davidson Cross – Easter Sunrise Service
2019-04-21 06:30 - 08:00 | Mount Davidson Cross, 39 Dalewood Way, San Francisco, CA, 94127, United States
San Francisco’s grandest Easter morning tradition gets under way at 6:30 a.m. on Sunday, April 21, 2019: the annual Sunrise Service at Mount Davidson Cross. This year’s citywide celebration atop the City’s highest peak marks the 98th anniversary of the event.

Community leaders taking part in the non-denominational city-wide celebration at the foot of America’s largest cross include Rev. Jeff Mammen of New Life Church, Robert Burns of Christian Counseling Center, Pastor Alex Cabansagan of Family Christian Fellowship, Rev. Seng Chin of Church of Christ, and San Francisco Fire Chief Joanne Hayes-White. The program will also feature music by the Salvation Army Brass Ensemble and Lynne Miller of The House of Bagpipes. Admission is free.
Situated at the summit of Mt. Davidson (elevation 938 ft.), the historic 103-foot-tall cross will be illuminated by spotlights throughout Saturday evening April 20th, shining as a beacon for Easter morning pilgrims (Note: great location shot at the corner of Robinhood Way and Lansdale Avenue on Saturday night).
Special bus service on Muni’s 36 line begins at 5:30 a.m. and runs every 15 minutes from Forest Hill Station to the park gate located at the intersection of Lansdale Avenue, Myra Drive and Dalewood Way – two blocks south of Portola Drive. Call (415) 673-MUNI for further transit information. The trail beginning at the park entrance across from 39 Dalewood Way affords the easiest route to the top.
Sponsored by local churches and broadcast nationally in years past, the Easter Sunrise Service attendance record was set during World War II, with an estimated 50,000 worshippers in attendance.
Originally dedicated by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in a transcontinental ceremony in 1934, the 103-foot-tall Mt. Davidson Cross has been restored by the Council of Armenian-American Organizations of Northern California, owners of the monument.
With the sun rising over the East Bay hills, Mt. Davidson Park’s beautiful forest setting serves as a spectacular backdrop for this cherished Easter event. Adding to the visual appeal of the panoramic view of San Francisco Bay and the downtown skyline at dawn is the dazzling springtime array of wildflowers currently in bloom.
Those planning to attend Easter Sunrise 2019 are advised to dress warmly and wear comfortable walking shoes for the short walk to the summit. For more details, call (415) 566-8393.
Enjoy early movie footage of this tradition from the 1920s provided by the Western Neighborhood Project.

African American Family Support Group - You Are Not Alone Workshop
2019-04-27 09:30 - 14:30 | North Oakland Senior Center, 5714 Martin Luther King Jr Way, Oakland, CA, United States
On Saturday, April 27, 2019, 9:30am – 2:30pm, the African American Family Outreach Project will host its free informational workshop “YOU ARE NOT ALONE,” for African American families who seek support and care for those who are living with mental illness and/or addicted to drugs or alcohol with an opportunity to talk with several mental health professionals.

Open to the community, the “You Are Not Alone” workshop is open to the entire community and will take place at the North Oakland Senior Center, 5714 Martin Luther King Jr Way, Oakland, CA (ample parking is available around back of the Senior Center). RSVP today!

Family members with lived experience say “when mental illness or substance abuse hit our loved ones, we did not know where to turn. In these workshops, we’re actually able to talk with the managing psychiatrist for Alameda County Behavioral Health Care Services and get answers! It’s made a huge difference.”

Interim Director of Alameda County Behavioral Health Services, Carol Burton, will attend the meeting and wants to hear families’ concerns and comments.

Time will be offered for individuals to discuss symptoms, causes and medications with a psychiatrist; an expert in dealing with drug and alcohol problems and advice from experienced family members who are willing to help.

Lunch is provided free of charge. Advance registration is required for proper planning. The registration deadline is Thursday, April 25th.
