Ondřej & Anna Szturc

In 2013, Ondra participated in a year-long internship program with KAM (Josiah Venture’s partner organization in the Czech Republic) called Journey. He has a passion for the local Czech church and, consequently, Ondra and his wife Anna are on the leadership team in the ESK Havířov church, where Ondra is also an elder and has responsibility for youth ministry. They work hard to keep in touch with new unchurched people at their church, at KAM events, and in their personal relationships.

In KAM, Ondra is involved in regional work with youth-leaders that provides them support and inspiration. His vision is to see the new generation of leaders across the country create healthy communities where unchurched people will be welcomed, accepted, and led to maturity as committed followers of Christ.
