Janette Oubrechtova
Janette Oubrechtova is an engaged leader from the Word of Life church in Milovice, Czech Republic, where she leads Jesus House Milovice. With a strong passion for reaching young people and those who have not yet heard the Gospel, she carries a clear desire to make Jesus known in her city.
In recent years, Janette has started and run both a café and a bistro in Milovice. These places have become more than just spots for food and drink - they are living expressions of her heart to reach people outside the walls of the church. Here, people encounter a warm community and individuals who love Jesus, often for the very first time.
Janette is passionate about creative evangelism and building bridges to those who might never otherwise step into a church. Through her work, she demonstrates how everyday environments can become places where God’s love is made visible and tangible.
We are so excited to welcome Janette to the Europe Conference and to hear what she has on her heart!

With a deep conviction in the power of the local church, they carry a vision of a church that brings hope, faith, and direction. Their heart is to see people enter into a living relationship with Jesus and discover the transformation and potential found in a life with Him.
Andreas has extensive leadership experience within the church and is full of vision and faith. He is known for his clear and engaging communication style - combining relevance, warmth, humor, and honesty.
