Former area resident and a former pastor of Unity, the Rev. Nelson J. Pierce Jr. will conduct the evening services.

The Rev. Pierce is now the senior pastor of Beloved Community Church in Cincinnati. He also helps to get progressive, social-justice-minded candidates elected to offices across the U.S. as the Grassroots Power Builder for Democracy for America.
