Music Minister, Josiah Mitchell
Josiah was born in Columbus, Georgia, and was raised in Georgetown, Georgia, where his dad pastored a small Southern Baptist Church. From an early age, his mother taught him, along with his 13 other siblings, how to sing. Being involved in church choirs ranging from such places as Georgetown, GA, New Orleans, LA, and eventually Colorado Springs, CO, Josiah has been singing since soon after he could talk.
More recently, he received a year of personal voice coaching at Boyce College in Louisville, KY, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in Communications. While there, he began leading worship through song at his local church on a volunteer basis. However, the Lord placed a calling on Josiah’s heart to move from his local church and pursue the ministry of worship leader at Pleasant Ridge Baptist Church. In April, 2024, after a few weeks of leading in song, the congregation and elders of PRBC unanimously voted Josiah in as the worship leader, thus affirming the Lord had called him to this ministry.
