Justin & Lucie Holden

Justin and Lucie are recent additions to the Josiah Venture (JV) Team. Though new to JV, they are experienced missionaries who received their call to missions in childhood. Lucie serves in her local church in Liberec, which Justin joined when he moved to the Czech Republic in 2013. The two have a strong desire to empower young leaders to influence the world around them and fall passionately in love with Christ.

Lucie and Justin work in various positions—from leading youth conferences to equipping leaders and coaching those facing addiction. They live in Liberec, where they lead the young adult's ministry and bible study groups in their local church. In joining JV, Justin's ministry has expanded to include more leadership training and support for youth leaders in his local area.
