What is your ministry?

The three main branches of our ministry are evangelism, mission, and discipleship. We serve students, both believers and unbelievers. Our mission is to make disciples of Christ among students. My role is to support the staff of IFES Belarus. Also, I organise national events and solve problems regarding tickets, visas, and the coming of international guests.

When did you trust Christ?

It was in the summer camp in 2008. We were invited to a camp for Belarusian kids in Latvia. My parents are Christians, but my decision was made after I heard the gospel from the stage at this camp.

What have been the defining moments of your Christian walk?

The most important was serving in orphanages while I was a teenager and later learning about IFES Belarus and starting to serve as a student leader at university.

What do you hope to gain from participating?

New meetings and seminars provided by ELF can inspire me to grow and do my job better. As a result of attending in 2023, we started partnerships with different organisations in our ministry using new speakers and guests for our projects.

What is your leadership role or what were your past leadership roles?

I organised events in orphanages. In addition, I was a youth ministry leader in my church. Also, I was a lead vocalist of the worship team.

Why should someone invest in your ministry?

We serve students in challenging situations near the war zone and during the political revolution in our country. Therefore, we have many needs, one of which is training to continue serving.
