Peter Michalcik is a missionary and youth ministry leader in Slovakia.
When did you trust Christ?
After Christian friends witnessed to me in 1990, I believed in God but did not want to follow Him. In 1994 I made a decision to follow Christ at the Conference for Youth Workers in Slovakia, organised by TCKompas.
What have been the defining moments of your Christian walk?
At the 1994 Conference for Youth Workers, God spoke to me through Ezekiel 22:30. I heard His voice telling me to be the man to "build up the wall and stand in the breach" for the young generation in my city, and later in Slovakia.
What do you hope to gain from participating?
I am already part of networking groups, and I would like to join our whole leadership team to hear new ideas and build new partnerships.
What is your ministry?
At Training Center Kompas, a national organisation ministering to youth, I am the team leader, leader of our camp ministry (a national outreach program), and Global Partnership Director.
What is your leadership role or what were your past leadership roles?
In the local church I have been a small group leader, youth leader, camp leader, and elder. At TCKompas I have been Outreach Camp Director for Slovakia (KECY), part of the School Outreach Ministry for Slovakia (EXIT), Program Director, and a member of the leadership team.
Why should someone invest in your ministry?
I believe that what I gain from the Forum will have an huge impact on my ministry to youth in Slovakia, as well as our organisation's global ministry partners.
