Local ministry background:
Petra believed in God during her studies at secondary grammar school. Since the beginning of her journey with God, she has had a great desire to dedicate herself to children and youth, to point them to Christ and serve them for conversion. Currently, she is an active member of one of free evangelical churches in her hometown. Her pastor and elders of the church support with pleasure her ministry among the youth: whether it is the Healthy Youth ministry at schools or free time activities within the youth club.

In 2019, Petra expanded the team of a very well-established non-profit organization in the Czech Republic. She attends schools with programs on spiritual and ethical topics. Through these programs, she helps children in elementary schools to develop basic life skills and prevent risky behaviors. The programs are as imaginative, playful and interactive as possible. Children learn in a playful way how to behave on in various crisis situations.

She joined the Healthy Youth ministry program in June 2022.

Petra sees the main goal of her ministry in imparting healthy spiritual values to children, in order to motivate them to change inappropriate attitudes and behaviors. She herself tries to set a good example for the children.

In addition to HY ministry at schools, she also works with children and teenagers in a leisure-time youth club. She volunteers with children from socially disadvantaged groups.

How she became a HY Worker:
