Kevin & Daniela Dickson

Anna, Ester and Tobias

Kevin and Daniela, along with their three children Anna, Ester, and Tobias, have been serving with Josiah Venture (JV) in the Czech Republic since May 2010. Although they started with JV in 2010, their service in Czech dates back to Kevin’s arrival in 2004 and Daniela’s calling to serve the church when she was a young Czech teenager.

They have a heart for young leaders in Central and Eastern Europe, and the vision of Josiah Venture to work through the local church to disciple young leaders who would transform their countries is of great importance to them.

Today, Kevin serves on the Executive Leadership Team for Josiah Venture in the Czech Republic. In this role, he oversees the outreach and discipleship programs of the country as well as North American church partnerships. Daniela works alongside Kevin and disciples young female leaders. They live in Vendryně where they also oversee the youth ministries (called LivingRoom) in their local church.
