Written by a UM pastor in Western Pennsylvania, this blog reflects my journey in ministry and in life... I've called this MIXED MINISTRIES, because as pastors our ministry to our congregation is never our only task nor our only priority, but rather is always mixed with our primary ministries to our families and ourselves.
About Me
- Dayton D. Mix
- Clarks Mills, Pennsylvania, United States
- I'm a husband, a dad, a son, a grandson, a pastor, & now a grandpa, too! Those are the basic hats I wear in my daily life. I was born & raised in rural Pennsylvania couple of miles from the New York border in a small town, Shinglehouse (Potter County). I struggle with my weight & my own quirks just like everyone else does. I became a United Methodist pastor in 1996 and was ordained in 2003. While I'm officially Methodist, I also consider myself a “charismatic” Christian, as well as an “evangelical”, although not everything identified with either of those labels fits me perfectly. I enjoy genealogy but seldom have time to do much with it. I like playing with eBay. I like to read, watch movies, camp, hike, and talk. I LOVE to write, but usually don't worry too much about formal grammar... instead choosing to write as I probably would speak. And even though I can spell pretty well, I'm a lousy typist, so be gracious. I update my blogs as often as I can, but I have a real life that demands me NOT being at the computer all the time... so there are dry spells!

Last Entry on Blogger
This version of MIXED MINISTRIES, hosted by Blogger, is slowly grinding down to a stop. In order to blog here (or on the Blogger version of my "MIXED GENES" blog), I have to access the sites using an old email address.
SO... I've moved both blogs to Word Press! NO NEW POSTS are being posted here on the Blogger sites.
Please follow the links to the new versions of these two blogs AND check out a new blog I have there as well: Mixed Meditations, featuring devotional and spiritual posts, allowing me to focus the Mixed Ministries blog on the practice of ministry.
The new version of MIXED GENES is found at www.mixedgenes.wordpress.com
The new version of MIXED MINISTRIES is found at www.mixedministries.wordpress.com
The new blog MIXED MEDITATIONS is found at www.mixedmeditations.wordpress.com
ALL three blogs are now active on WordPress!
THANKS!
