This Sunday, we’ll welcome guest preacher Nico Van Ostrand, who will lead worship along with Rev. Kate Tucker, Lauren Wyeth, Aimee K. Bryant, and Franco Holder.

About their message this Sunday, Nico shares: “The equation for calculating price per unit is a simple one, handy for finding the best value at a store. Yet trying to fit our values and Principles into that equation complicates it quite a bit. In this time of rainbow capitalism, performative activism, and faltering progress, let us double check our trajectory. Are we on our way to the heaven on earth Universalists dreamed of, or do we need a new equation?”

About this week’s guest preacher, Nico van Ostrand:
Nico (they/them) is a religious educator at White Bear Unitarian Universalist Church, where they particularly love sharing UU theology with all ages through story. They have been active with local racial justice organizations including MUUSJA and Filipinx for Immigrant Rights & Racial Justice MN (FIRM), and began their seminary journey last year with a focus on BIPOC-centered UU ministry. Nico feels most grounded while practicing tai chi with others by the water. Between it all, Nico squeezes in time to play piano, take long walks, and pet their two large cats.
