Cristian serves in the role of deacon. Cristian joined  PBC in 2021 and is passionate about the church being a source of hope and inspiration to all, as we worship and serve Jesus together.

Cristian grew up in Christian family in Romania and studied Theology in Padua, Italy. He is married to Karina and they have two sons. Cristian enjoys spending time with my family, playing table tennis and gardening. While he is passionate about Italian food—having worked as a chef for many years in Rome— he also enjoys a generous portion of authentic fish and chips.

Cristian values an inclusive church — one where people of all ages and backgrounds can come together, serve with love, and find a safe, welcoming space to seek and experience God.

He views it as a great privilege to serve the Lord and His church, knowing that every act of service contributes to His greater purpose and brings glory to His name.
