Sydney, AUSTRALIA — The Greater Sydney Conference (GSC) welcomes Pastor Dejan Stojkovic, who has accepted the position of GSC Youth Director.
“We welcome him into our team and know that God will use him in a mighty way to create a thriving disciple-making movement,” says General Secretary Cheonneth Strickland. “We also thank God for His leading, as He has opened many doors to enable Dejan and his family to minster here.”
Pr Stojkovic was born in Kragujevac, Serbia. He finished his primary and secondary education in post-communist Serbia. He moved to England in 2001 to study theology, and he completed undergraduate and postgraduate degrees at Newbold College.
After graduating from university, Pr Stojkovic served as a youth pastor at Stanborough Park Church in Watford, England, where he established an outreach and reclamation ministry for youth and young adults. He has also served as Trans-European Division Youth and Pathfinder Director, British Union Conference Youth Director and teen ministry leader, at Adventist Volunteer Services, and was chaplain at the South England Conference. His mission in his career and life is very simple—preparing young people for the Second Coming of Jesus.
Pr Stojkovic and his wife, Deana, married in 2010. They have three young children.
