Jelena’s Vilotijevic

Jelena is the head of the Women’s Ministry at the student organisation EUS Montenegro (IFES). Her time is spent mentoring young women, leading Bible studies, and giving talks, as well as helping to run camps, mission weeks, retreats, and women’s brunches.

She uses her Biblical counselling skills and gifting in drama and sport as ways to share the gospel; she also regularly utilises skills she developed while working as a ministry trainee at St Michael’s, such as running Alpha courses and kids’ programmes.
