Stefan Radelich with Local Children

Stefan Radelich

 

During his last semester at Cornell University in 1986, Stefan experienced a personal and spiritual transformation through Jesus Christ.  Immediately he knew everything in his life would change: ambitions, dreams, goals... a desire was born to follow God and serve his people.
 
After a year-long missionary internship in southern Africa in 1988, where he met his wife Alta, Stefan returned to the United States and became an assistant pastor at his local church, serving in that capacity for four years.  The Lord then called Stefan, Alta, and their growing family to Victory Christian Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma to sit and study under the leadership of Pastors Billy Joe and Sharon Daugherty.  After a time of intensive training, the Radelich's moved to South Bend, Indiana in 1995 to serve the ministry of Dr. Lester Sumrall.
 
Stefan's responsibilities at LeSEA have been diverse over the years, formally serving as an associate pastor at Christian Center Cathedral of Praise and as director of World Harvest Ministers Network.  In addition to enjoying "an hour with the world" on the Harvest program daily, Stefan's present role as the Executive Director of LeSEA Global Feed The Hungry brings a great sense of satisfaction and fulfillment.
 
"I'm often overcome by the goodness of God... to see firsthand how he works through his people to touch the lives of so many around the world each and every day through Feed The Hungry is a dream come true.  We're going to see this ministry increase and explode in impact... it is evident that the Lord has positioned FTH to reach multitudes with the gospel in this generation."
