Pastoral Team

John & Kelsie Mullen

Prague Christian Fellowship has been led by John and Kelsie Mullen since the fall of 1996. John & Kelsie were among the founders of The International House of Prayer Prague (IHOPP) in 2002 and John was among the founders of the Christian International School of Prague (CISP) in 2004. John also served on the Board of Directors of both organizations for a number of years. Kelsie currently serves on the IHOPP & YWAM (CZ) board of directors.

John & Kelsie are both from Texas. John graduated from the University of Texas with a Finance degree and began working in the banking/real estate sector (later had his own commercial real estate appraisal/consulting company). John came to Prague on short term missions outreach in 1992. God’s calling on his life became more and more clear. He attended Dallas Theological seminary while a youth pastor, and did a pastoral internship at the Dallas Vineyard under John Wallace. He was then invited to come back to Prague and pastor PCF by the indigenous Czech church that planted PCF. He had just started seeing Kelsie when he received a formal invitation to move to Prague. One of the things that attracted John to Kelsie was that from the age of 16 Kelsie already felt a strong call from God to live overseas as a missionary. Kelsie had already studied sociology, nursing and had gone on many short term mission trips when they met. God had a plan,… and in 1996 they started dating, got engaged, got married and moved to Prague~ all in one year! They enjoy hospitality in their home with their grown kids and dog. Mitchell and Matthew were born in Prague and Ester Moriah was adopted from the Czech Republic at 3 months of age. John & Kelsie also enjoy hosting interactive worship services and seeing others released into their destinies in the kingdom of God.

Sam Mathew

Sam is the current worship leader for PCF. He has been in the Czech Republic since 2016 and joined the church in the same year. He came to Prague for higher studies and graduated from Prague City University with a Bachelor’s in Computing. He is from India but was born and brought up in the U.A.E. His relationship with God grew even more in Prague. He started out serving at the church with projection, as he was studying for his degree in IT and wanted to serve in this capacity. Not a stranger to music, as he grew up singing and playing with his guitar, he eventually joined the PCF worship team in 2019. He played the guitar only a couple of times, but later on, he would also try his hand at singing. In the years to follow, he grew more and more into worship and felt God’s calling to serve in the worship team. In the winter of 2022, he started leading worship, which became more frequent in the following months. Ultimately, in the summer of 2023, he became the Prague Christian Fellowship worship leader.

JUSTIN & MERIN THOMAS

Justin and Merin Thomas serve as Elders at PCF. Originally from India (Kerala), they have been part of PCF since early 2024. Justin works as a researcher at the Czech Technical University in Prague, while Merin is a dentist by profession (currently not practicing). They have a baby boy, Joshua.

Justin has been involved with the Sound Crew since his early days at PCF, and later also started being involved with camera & recording for social media. Since the second quarter of 2025, Justin and Merin have been hosting the P1 Home Group and leading the weekly Bible study. The P1 Home Group meets every Friday at the Ministry Centre, Vodičkova 17.

Justin has also been part of two mission trips with the PCF Mission Team to Croatia. He has a heart for teaching and serving, while Merin is especially gifted in prayer. They are also involved in establishing the Student Ministry, working among international students in Prague.

Together, they faithfully juggle ministry responsibilities with the joyful calling of raising Joshua to be a God-fearing child who loves Jesus—perhaps even more than his parents.
