Pastor Ivan Mustač
Ivan is a graduate of Theological Biblical Academy, Croatia. He not only trained there, but went on to serve on staff and help with many ministry duties in the local church TBA resides in. He has been a faithful shepherd and teacher of the people in Zadar for the last couple of years.
Because of the cost of living and culture of Croatia, it is a rare scenario for the pastor to be freed up completely for the work of ministry. However, with the support of other ministries and individuals internationally, Ivan has been able to focus all of his time and efforts into the pastorate at Zadar Baptist Church.
In his time in Zadar, their church has seen many be baptized and grow in their faith in Christ.
