Alex Tománek

Alex comes from Slovakia. He grew up culturally Roman Catholic, but at his third Josiah Venture camp he finally understood the gospel and started following Jesus. A few months later, he started attending a Lutheran church. At the church, he got involved in the youth group and the English camp ministry. Because he himself experienced God changing his life through the ministry of others, Alex found ministry very meaningful, and, therefore, decided to pursue a full-time ministry career. In order to prepare himself, Alex went to the United States to study. There, he earned a bachelor’s degree at Moody Bible Institute and a master of theology degree at Dallas Theological Seminary. During his studies in the U.S., he became more acutely aware of the spiritual need in Europe and his country; therefore, he decided to return to Slovakia after graduating seminary.

After Alex learned about the potential opportunity to serve on Josiah Venture’s Higher Education team, he became very enthusiastic, because the opportunity would allow him to bring his passion for teaching, academic study, spiritual formation, and practical ministry together. He joined the Higher Education team in January 2025 and serves as one of the lecturers at the European campus of Moorlands College. There, he helps provide theological and biblical education for emerging leaders across Central and Eastern Europe. Alex longs to see all Moorlands students use the knowledge and skills they acquire during their studies to reach Europe through local and practical ministry, and through equipping others to do the same. Alex lives in Žilina, Slovakia and seeks to reach and disciple young people at his church.
