Pastor Mirek was born in England and grew up in southern Africa where his parents were missionaries. They moved to the United States when Mirek was a teenager and he graduated from North Springs High School here in Atlanta. He received his Bachelor’s Degree from Kansas State University, and went on to spend many successful years in corporate sales.

In 1987, Pastor Mirek felt strongly called to leave his career in corporate sales and devote his life to full-time ministry. He served as an associate pastor of a thriving local Atlanta church for 4 years.

They felt strongly that God was leading them to begin a new work in the city of Roswell. In the fall of 1991, with the blessing of their pastor, they pioneered World Harvest Church in Roswell, Georgia. The church has grown steadily through the years, changing locations to aid in expansion.
