As a Master of Public Relations and a long-standing media representative of the Serbian Orthodox Church, he has authored numerous publications, and appeared in many radio and television programs and podcasts.

The CHARISMA ARTS NETWORK includes collaborators from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, as well as from Serbia and Republika Srpska.
Their joint work focuses on the design and production of objects for sacred use — items intended for use in churches and other liturgical spaces.
CHARISMA ARTS offers everything that can be painted, sculpted, or crafted in wood, metal, stone, glass, or textile — all with sacred purpose.
We organize educational, cultural, and artistic events independently and in collaboration with local institutions in the United States, as well as with the support of individual sponsors and partners.
Publishing houses that support our work play a vital role in promoting our projects in music, literature, and in the broader presentation of our artistic and spiritual mission.
Charisma Life is a Christian life coaching ministry founded and led by FrVlad, designed for those who long to live with greater clarity, peace, and purpose — in communion with Christ.
This is not a self-help program, but a spiritual journey shaped by the timeless wisdom of the Church, the rhythm of prayer, and the healing presence of God’s grace.
Charisma Life offers coaching programs for different stages and callings in life:
– The King’s Journey – for men seeking spiritual leadership and renewal
– The Queen’s Path – for women longing for peace, purpose, and feminine grace
– The Pathfinders – for young adults discerning their direction and identity in Christ
– Guardians of Angels – for parents and caregivers of children with special needs
Each program combines prayer, Scripture reflection, spiritual mentoring, and practical tools for living a Christ-centered life in today’s world.
Rooted in the Byzantine-Christian tradition, Charisma Life is open to all who seek deeper alignment with God’s will — regardless of denominational background. The goal is not perfection, but presence. Not performance, but peace.
Charisma Life offers its coaching through:
– Small group journeys (online and in-person)
– One-on-one mentoring and spiritual direction
– Retreats, sacred evenings, and special events
– Creative resources, music, and reflective writings
Wherever you are in your journey — Charisma Life invites you to return to what has always healed the soul:
Grace. Silence. Truth. Christ.
