The Board of World Mission is pleased to announce that the Rev. Dan Miller will be joining our staff as the Director of Mission Service. Dan grew up in Lake Mills, Wisconsin and from early on was active in his local church and other Moravian ministries. He received his Bachelor of Science in Education from the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater and his Masters of Divinity from Moravian Theological Seminary. Dan’s first career was as a junior high and high school math teacher in the Wisconsin public school system. He moved out to Pennsylvania to attend seminary while also serving as the student pastor for College Hill Moravian Church in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and a chaplain intern for the Reading Health System in Reading, Pennsylvania. Dan has served as the pastor of Edgeboro Moravian Church since 2016. He has been involved in the ministry of the Board of World Mission for many years, serving on our board of directors since 2019 and as the vice chair since 2022. Both he and his wife, Beth, currently reside in Bethlehem. In his spare time, Dan can be found playing his bass guitar or following his favorite (Wisconsin) sports teams.
As Director of Mission Service, Dan will be responsible for facilitating mission service opportunities to empower individuals to take part in mission both locally and globally. He will coordinate youth and young adult Convos, resource Moravian youth ministries with mission-related programming, and develop intentional leadership training for Moravian clergy, lay leaders, adult members, and youth. Dan is passionate about equipping others to know and live out their faith, love, and hope and making known the stories that come as a result.
Dan will conclude his ministry with Edgeboro Moravian Church on February 2nd and begin his work with the Board of World Mission on February 18th, serving from the BWM office in Bethlehem (and wherever our global ministry takes him!). His BWM email address will be [email protected].
Welcome, Dan!
