16 September 2016 | Zageb, Croatia [Neven Klačmer / tedNEWS] Pastor Drago Mojzes was elected president of the Adriatic Union of Churches at a specially convened session of the AUC Executive committee on Friday, 16 September. For the past three years he has served as President of the Croatian Conference of the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Now he will also oversee the work of the Church in Albania and Slovenia.
Mojzes replaces Pastor Zlatko Musija who was recently elected as Youth Ministries director for the Trans-European Division.
Born in the Croatian town of Slatina in 1960, Mojzes comes from good Adventist stock – where a number of family members are pastors. He completed studies at the Theological Seminary, Marusevec in 1982 and three years later began his pastoral ministry as an intern and later pastor.
Mojzes has worked in a variety of churches throughout Croatia across a period of 31 years. Following his ordination in 1992 he worked for short time as dean of man and chaplain at the Adriatic Union College in Marusevec. He then pastored in Pula, Zagreb and Daruvar until he was elected in 2013 as president of the Croatian Conference with its headquarters in Zagreb. The Croatian Conference Executive Committee plan to meet shortly to elect a new president and maintain continuity of mission.
Pastor Drago Mojzes is recommended by the AUC Executive Committee as a Godly man and long-serving successful pastor. He has wife, Slavica; a daughter, Mirjana; a son-in-law and two beautiful granddaughters. [tedNEWS]
