Rev. J. Bradbury Mitchell
I live in Brunswick, Maine where I have retired as pastor of the Unitarian Universalist Church after serving the congregation for 19 years. Before coming to Maine I was a pastor in Mentor, Ohio, Laconia, New Hampshire and Lexington, Massachusetts. I have been married to the same woman for 44 years and we have two grown children. I am a graduate from Crane Theological School at Tufts University, with an M.Div. degree, in the class of 1969.
Previously, I was a music educator in the Lexington, Massachusetts school system for five years, having graduated from Lowell (Massachusetts) State Teachers College in 1961.
I have been involved in several community projects throughout my career including: starting a community theater, saving an old mill building for renovation as a community arts and crafts center, being a chaplain to a county hospice program, starting a shelter program for the homeless and starting a respite program for care givers. My current interests are in documenting the history of families and local communities, music performance (I sing with the Merrymeeting Singers and the Nor'easters Barbershop Chorus,) and gardening.
