Worship At The Well is a cross cultural, cross denominational platform designed to bring worship to the Father regardless of genre, style, or background. It is a place where believers come with no time constraint and no other agenda than to minister to the heart of God.
It is in this atmosphere that we have experienced miracles, divine direction & prophetic declaration. It is in this atmosphere that we have encountered God himself. This is not about personalities or self-glorification because in the absence of fleshly exultation is the preeminent presence of God. The revelation of who He is is revealed into the hearts of every seeker from the season believer to the unchurched sinner.

Making Connections 3.0
2016-04-23 08:30 - 16:00 | College, 900 Fallon Street, Oakland, CA, 94607, United States
Making Connections 3.0 is an initiative designed to mobilize African-American organizations, businesses and leaders within the East Bay to explore solutions and strategies for the betterment of East Bay communities. Making Connections 3.0 will be the third convening and scheduled to take place on Saturday, April, 23, 2016 at Laney College, Oakland from 8:30am – 3:30pm.
With the goal to exceed the expectations of our past gatherings held at Merritt College and Laney College, in 2016 we are planning to engage over 500 attendees in meaningful dialogues captured in a variety of topical plenary sessions and breakout workshops.
“Making Connections 3.0” topics will include conversations on Youth culture, movements and their future, the Africa Diaspora business and politics, and the Black Church and its role in social change. Special guest speakers and industry practitioners will lead panel discussions and breakout sessions with the intention of leaving the audience with tangible outcomes.
The 2016 forum will focus and support outcomes relative to employment, job development and training, education, family dynamics and mentoring, particularly with the youth and young adult voice in mind. One of the main event objectives is for participants to form alliances to advocate for policy changes; to make commitments to mentor young people; to connect job seekers with employment resources, training, assessments, and other opportunities within the community.
For our partners, we have structured a multitude of opportunities for engagement as event sponsors, volunteers, programming support and/or exhibitors.
We are hopeful of your partnership to support our efforts to engage, link and strengthen the greater African-American community of organizations, businesses and leaders within the East Bay Area.
If you should have questions about sponsorship levels, engagement, or interested in volunteering, please contact LaNiece Jones at laniecejones@gmail.com or call 510.568.5563 or Aisha Brown at 510.272.6695.

For the past five years, we have seen a tremendous move of God throughout the earth as we host conferences and gatherings in different regions around the world. We’ve seen people healed, saved, and set free from incredible bondages. But in this next season we sense the Lord speaking to us to create a spiritual oasis here in the San Francisco Bay Area.
These will be phenomenal times! You can expect for souls to be saved, bodies and minds to be healed, and deliverance to take place. No agendas, no schedules, just the moving of God’s spirit is all we are pressing in for. I promise that you’ll walk away from the monthly gatherings feeling empowered to change the world.
We look forward to you, your family, and your church group joining us every month for a colliding life changing experience with the Spirit of God!
In His Service,
Del Augusta
