Marián has decided to follow Jesus when he was 13 years old. He met his wife Michaela, a daughter of missionaries, in the local CB church. They got baptized at the age of 14 and 16 and joined the youth ministry in their church which led into an outreach ministry called “ESCAPE club”. They actively organized regular gatherings, summer and winter camps, concerts and other events that God has been faithfully using to save teenagers that have later joined the CB church and took over the youth ministry.

Marián has experienced a calling into the spiritual ministry and therefore decided to study theology. After graduation, he started passionately serving as a pastor in CB Žilina and remained in this role for eight years. His ministry, as much as it was fruitful, it was also exhausting for him and his family. That is why they have decided not to continue in this ministry, even though they love their church and will continue to serve in it in other ways. After a six-month sabbatical, Marián is joining the team that leads TCKompas.

Marián and Michaela got married in 2014 and have two daughters, Elisa and Emília.
