What is your ministry?

I am a university pastor of the University Chaplaincy of Károli Gáspár University of the Reformed Church in Hungary. I am organising students' community programs and leading religious events. I also teach elective subjects and provide pastoral care among students.

When did you trust Christ?

I heard a boy younger than me testify of Jesus Christ at a youth camp. I was very touched. He quoted the scripture: "We love because He loved us first." I felt that Jesus loved me and was calling me, too. Then, I went back to my church and sought God more, and the following summer, I heard the call to serve the Lord Jesus Christ.

What have been the defining moments of your Christian walk?

A youth leader in the church has had a significant influence on the growth of my faith. He talked about living relationships with God and the importance of prayer. Today, when I can lead young people in prayer, I genuinely convey my understanding of following Jesus Christ.

What do you hope to gain from participating?

In the Forum, I would like to meet leaders in youth work, gain experience and new ideas, and return home to help spread the gospel at the university.

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

I have been leading youth groups for ten years. I organised a mission for marginalised people in a village in Hungary. Together with youth organisations, I organise and lead summer camps. As a university pastor, I organise students' community programs and lead religious events.

Why should someone invest in your ministry?

During their time at the university, teachers and students can grow in academic knowledge and faith. I think it is worth investing in this ministry because there is excellent immersion in building the kingdom of God in this institution.
