Youth With A Mission

You are visitor of

When YWAM began in 1960, our main focus was giving young people opportunities to demonstrate the love of Jesus to the whole world, according to His command in Matt 28:18. Today, we still focus on youth, but we have members of almost every age and many of our short-term efforts have grow into long-term endeavors that have impacted lives and nations.

Youth With A Mission is an international volunteer movement of Christians from many backgrounds, cultures and Christian traditions, dedicated to serving Jesus throughout the world. Our purpose is simply to know God and to make Him known.

YWAM has a decentralized structure that encourages new vision and the exploration of new ways to change lives through training, convey the message of the gospel and care for those in need. We are currently operating in more than 1000 locations in over 175 countries, with a staff of nearly 22,000
