What is your ministry?
Now, I am a staff worker at the IFES student ministry in Georgia. I am the leader of the city. I lead and organise different student events, such as Bible Study Groups, Evangelistic Events, seminars, conferences, and camps. I am mentoring the students and helping them grow in their faith.
When did you trust Christ?
I was born into a Christian family, but I committed to following Jesus and to be baptised when I was 17. I attended a church, and God touched my heart; I realised I needed to be baptised and serve God.
What have been the defining moments of your Christian walk?
The defining moment of my Christian walk was when I found a Christian student group. (I had a hard time when I was a student. I was lost, felt meaningless, and couldn't see my future.) But thanks to God, I found the IFES student group, where I found Christian friendship, love, and peace. I started Bible study and got to know more about Jesus. I was so impacted that I became a staff member of IFES in Georgia, and now I have helped others grow for six years already.
What do you hope to gain from participating?
I think this Forum will help me get to know Christian leaders all over Europe, get inspiration and encouragement in my ministry, find some ideas, and share experiences about different ministries and leadership.
What is your leadership role or what were your past leadership roles?
I have been the leader of the student group for six years. I have experience in leadership at different camps and conferences.
Why should someone invest in your ministry?
I am investing in future leaders. I try to help young people find themselves in Christ, find their ministry, and grow. They may be future doctors, teachers, ministers, or whatever, but they are also faithful Christians. I am serving the ministry whose goal is to spread the Gospel among students, invest in them, and help them to grow as Christian leaders. Students are very confused, lost, tired, and stressed. They need support, encouragement, and the right direction at this time.
