Local ministry background:
Tereza grew up in a Christian family. She has “always” known that there was God and what He did for people. In 2016, she gave her life to God personally. Since then, she has become more involved in the ministry and life of her home church.
She is involved in leading worship, creative leisure club for children, and implementing occasional congregational events. Children and youth are especially close to her heart.
In the autumn of 2021, she joined the team of the certified non-profit Christian organization Lighthouse. Since then, she has been implementing HY programs among children in primary schools in her region.
She leads the HY programs in an interactive way and, in addition to important information, she mainly transmits values and attitudes that lead children to take responsibility for their own life decisions.
The aim of her ministry is to show children values that are not so evident in today’s world: e.g. the importance of family, acceptance of one’s own worth, love of neighbor, respect for life, etc.
The system of the HY programs that Tereza offers to schools is aimed at promoting a comprehensive education of a young person with an emphasis on the perception of value, finding and organizing basic priorities in life and grasping one’s own responsibility.
With the help of the HY programs, she wants to influence children’s consciousness and thus strengthen their resistance to harmful influences that do not lead to a healthy way of life. Another aim is to help children, for example, to develop the ability to resist negative peer pressure and to learn to say “no” if needed.
Tereza is also involved in the leisure club, which is designed for creative children aged 4 to 6. She prepares diverse and creative activities for the children and enjoys it very much.
She is also involved in the preparation and implementation of a suburban camp every year under the banner of the leisure club.
