While serving as pastor of Shabach Christian Church and Vice President of Shabach Ministries of Praise, Inc., she is also very active in the community working with teen-age girls.
 

Pastor Mixon understands first hand what it’s like to go through traumatic experiences during the teen-age years, as a result, she has founded an organization for young girls between the ages of thirteen and nine-teen, known as, PEARLS. PEARLS is a nationally recognized 501(c)3 non-profit organization focusing on the needs, pressures and concerns of inner city girls teaching them life skills and biblical principals preparing them for womanhood. PEARLS was established to encourage trust and friendship with other girls, while addressing the reality of life and building their self-esteem, as they prepare for a brighter future. As the young ladies matriculate through the program, PEARLS holds an annual Cotillion and graduation ceremony celebrating the right of passage into womanhood. Pastor Mixon’s PEARLS program which in its acronymic term means Preparing Early As Rich Ladies of Success, has been most successful in helping many young girls become positive, responsible young ladies of their church and community.
 
Pastor Mixon is also, the creator and instructor of “Fitness through Praise!” which is an exhilarating aerobic work out video specifically designed for Christians desiring to keep fit. Pastor Mixon’s video has been so inspirational to Christians wanting to become healthy in mind, body and spirit that it has been used as a prototype on fitness in other countries; such as, South Africa and India.

Pastor Mixon recognizes that the people of God perish from a lack of knowledge and that the devil seeks to steal, kill and destroy the Body of Christ in any way he can. Therefore, she has tailored her ministry for direct confrontation of the enemy, as she pulls out all weapons of warfare by applying her skillful knowledge of the Word of God, with Praise and Worship to bring deliverance to God’s people. Pastor Mixon is nicknamed “Small Powerhouse” for none other reason, than her explosiveness and ability to pull souls out of deaths grip. You will not be disappointed or left unfulfilled once you have experienced the ministry of Pastor Sonya M. Mixon. Come ready to be blessed with your hearts and minds to receive the Word of God, as souls are saved and curses are broken, reversed and become void in your life!
