Seth Anderson-Matz joins the First U Staff

Beloved First Universalist Community!

I am thrilled to be returning to the First Universalist staff (after another meaningful chapter in the past!) as the Intergenerational Justice, Service, and Leadership Coordinator for the 2025-26 church year! 

Since we were last connected, I’ve attended and graduated from United Theological Seminary of the Twin Cities with an M.A. in Religion and Theology, and I completed an 18-month interim leadership role with First Presbyterian Church of Mankato. I’m now building a community ministry portfolio that includes preaching, liturgical arts, facilitation, and community organizing work with a special focus on queer & trans liberation. 

There’s no shortage of work to be done in this world, and it takes every single one of us. I can’t wait to see what we’ll create together this year—across, between, and throughout the many generations who belong to this beloved community.

In gratitude,

Seth Anderson-Matz
