About us

"You too will send for nations you do not know. Even though you do not know them, they will come running to you. That is what I will do. I am the LORD your God. I am the Holy One of Israel. I have honoured you.’" Isaiah 55, 5
 

The good news of Jesus Christ profoundly transformed the lives of Ivan and Venesa Tadic.
At a pivotal moment in their lives, they discovered the joy and hope found in Christ, which ignited a deep desire in them to share the gospel and help others grow in their relationship with God.

Their joint ministry began in 2001 in Croatia.
On the streets of Zagreb, they reached out to homeless and drug-addicted individuals, prayed with them, and shared the message of salvation through Jesus Christ. This outreach soon developed into a residential community for people struggling with drug and alcohol addiction.

After several years of preparation in Germany, they were sent out as missionaries to Phnom Penh, Cambodia in 2008—first with “Vision for Asia” and later with “Christliche Fachkräfte International.” There, they were involved in various social and missionary projects, student outreach, and church planting. Their main focus and passion was evangelism and discipleship.

In December 2015, they were forced to return to Germany due to different circumstances.
Since 2018, they have been working with “DMGint” to reach internationals in the Reutlingen area with the gospel, as well as to start and lead discipleship groups. Their heart is to help international believers break free from old strongholds, grow in their identity in Christ, and walk in the calling God has placed on their lives.

Today, Ivan and Venesa live in Bad Urach (Reutlingen district) with their three children – Terezija, Boaz, and Timotej. Ivan holds a Master of Arts in Culture and Theology from the Academy for World Mission in Korntal (Columbia International University, South Carolina).
