LOCATION: Bratislava, Slovakia
VISION STATEMENT: I am committed to impacting lives across Europe by shaping how people see God and guiding them into an authentic relationship with Jesus. I am equally passionate about encouraging and supporting leaders who are reaching others, equipping them to bring transformation through the message of God’s Kingdom.
MINISTRY FOCUS:
As a Global Volunteer, I will continue to serve alongside the national church in Slovakia, where I was born and have ministered for the past 19 years. My ministry includes teaching, speaking, and offering spiritual support to churches and at events across the country.
A central expression of my work is currently co-leading small, intentional retreats for women through Soul Sanctuary, with a focus on women in leadership. These 2–3 night retreats create space for rest, personal ministry, and learning, as well as guided conversations addressing the unique challenges women leaders face. Through this, we seek to foster encouragement, spiritual growth, and meaningful community among participants.
MINISTRY HISTORY: With over two decades of dedicated service, I have been engaged in global ministry since 2002, serving as a Global Worker alongside my husband Sheldon with the Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada in both the United Kingdom and Slovakia. My journey has been shaped by a deep commitment to church planting, leadership development, and outreach among vulnerable communities, including anti-trafficking initiatives. From 2018 to 2023, I served as Associate Pastor at City Church Bratislava, where I led pastoral ministries through preaching, teaching, mentoring, and developing programs for families and all age groups. My educational background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Biblical Studies and Pastoral Ministry from Zion Bible Institute, along with a Diploma in Christian Education, and a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism from the Cyril & Methodius University in Slovakia. These experiences, combined with my cross-cultural work and passion for people, have uniquely equipped me for this present season of ministry and leadership.
PRAYER REQUESTS:
Pray for the Gospel to continue reaching people of all ages in Slovakia
Pray for Soul Sanctuary retreats to be an oasis of rest and growth
Pray for new ministry opportunities and creative ways to support those who need encouragement and renewal
