"Officially became a licensed pastor last weekend," Mitchell wrote Sunday. "Blessed and thankful to my Spirit Food Family and thank you, Pastor Zeigler, for seeing the calling of God on my life and trusting me with your Youth Department."
The actor, who recently came in second on ABC's "Dancing with the Stars," also shared the Scripture Romans 8:28-29 in the New Living Translation.
“And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them. For God knew his people in advance, and he chose them to become like his Son, so that his Son would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters.”
