Michał Żółtko is the worship leader at his local church in Poland.
When did you trust Christ?
I made my decision to trust Christ when I was 18 years old. I was raised in an Evangelical family and church, but I decided that I needed to accept and believe in Jesus personally.
What have been the defining moments of your Christian walk?
I realised that the only way that I could be saved was through the blood of Jesus, and that knowledge alone would not save me. I knew I needed to turn to God for a personal relationship, and I am glad that He found me and touched my heart.
What do you hope to gain from participating?
The Forum is always a huge encouragement for me. To be able to learn from experienced leaders and talk to people in the same line of service as me, and share experiences, is an amazing thing. Every year, I gain lots of ideas about how to take care of my ministry better, especially recently, after opening a sub-track for Music and Worship Leaders. Like every imperfect human being, I get tired of the ministry, which takes a lot of time and effort. Yet at the Forum, I get refreshed, energized, and equipped for the next year of work.
What is your ministry?
I serve as a worship leader in my local church, and also help organise rehearsals, choose and arrange songs for church gatherings, and play electric guitar. There are at least 15 people in our team and growing, thanks to the Lord!
Why should someone invest in your ministry?
I feel that understanding music ministry is especially important for countries like mine and even church denominations that have little or no knowledge about how to incorporate meaningful worship in church services or other events.
