Beautiful Orthodox art, huge variety of nesting dolls, Christmas decor, so much to look at I need to go back soon and spend more time there. I found a baptism prayer card, cross and nun nesting doll for my gifts. Some prices were great, very affordable, some items had very high prices that confused me, I assume they were antiques, many items were imported too. Even if you're not of the faith you should still come check this place out. The Orthodox Christmas decor, such as Christmas tree nesting dolls and the beautiful jewelry. There's really something for everyone.

Now at the age of 45, I started reading my bible again, and am also reading my dad's bible -- trying to decide what version I like more, and also reading the notes my dad left in his bible. Went to Serendipity to see if they had books to help me understand what I am reading, and was met with open arms, and more guidance than I could ever imagine. Veronica was beyond helpful and more importantly she showed no judgement on how I lost faith as a child and am coming back, even items they didn't have in stock, she pointed me to where to get them online. Will definitely be back! Veronica and Serendipity, thank you for everything you do! I was getting frustrated and unsure if I should continue this but today you showed me that everyone has difficulties and more importantly that there is no judgement, only those willing to help you on your journey. Again, thank you!

I've been wanting to stop in and check out this place as they are local and getting great reviews. The owner said he's been there for over two decades. There is a wonderful collection of loose-leaf tea, books, and gifts. If you are seeking books on spirituality, religion, meditation, etc, they have a nice collection of published work. They also carry beautiful cards, incense, and teapots. They had a special display of their matcha products too. The atmosphere is soothing and peaceful. If you would like to relax with a cup of tea, there are a couple tables inside and a few outside as well. You can see their colorful teapots in the window.

Lots of teas to choose from and they explained each tea to us, will definitely be back!read more

While it was well managed and stocked with a variety of Bibles, books, and gifts, it was tiny and bursting at the seams. But after the recent church remodel and addition, those problems have been solved. The new, improved, and much larger bookstore has a bright, airy location inside and to the left of the main lobby, just past Cafe 4 (the new coffee bar). The bookstore is spacious, has plenty of windows and natural light, a little nook for kids stocked with beanbag chairs, and plenty of fiction and nonfiction books, Bibles, and children's books. I love the bookcase of "Pastors' Picks" and the reading area with two cozy armchairs. It's a fantastic location with a view of the Bay, and with Christian bookstores few and far between and the recent closure of Jordan's Village Books, this store is much needed in Castro Valley.

Pro tip for finding this place: Google maps may take you right past the shop because it's on a part of Martin Luther King Jr. Way that is hidden behind the main road. If you get lost, use your map app to see where you are in relationship to the store, and find your way there manually. I went in there, looking to get one new Oracle deck, and walked out with four!
