John Czarneicki - Digital Marketing
I grew up in a Catholic family where church was a regular part of life. I went through First Confession, First Communion, Confirmation, and even served as an altar boy, but after confirmation I slowly drifted away from my faith. I still believed in God, but I didn’t have a real relationship with Him.
That changed in January 2014 when I attended a business conference and decided to join an optional Sunday worship service with some people, I was there with. During the service, a man shared his testimony about how Christ had changed his life, and it made me realize how much I was missing by not having a true relationship with God. In that moment, I gave my life to Christ. In the spring of 2016 I was baptized, and since then my faith has become the foundation of my life.
Today I strive to let my faith guide both my personal life and my work as the owner of a digital marketing and AI agency, running my business with integrity and a desire to serve others well.
