A ministry of
Youth With A Mission
Youth With A Mission (YWAM) is......
an international and interdenominational orgnaization presenting Jesus Christ, mobilizing as many as possible to help in this task, and training and equipping believers for their part in fulfilling the Great Commission.
"To know God and make Him known"
Youth With A Mission's Beginning
YWAM began in 1960 with a young man, Loren Cunningham, and a vision. He saw in front of him
a map of the world with waves crashing into the continents, advancing inland until all the nations were covered. The waves became young people of
all ages, talking to people on street corners, going from house to house, helping the lonely, feeding the hungry, and leading them to a relationship with Jesus.
Loren Cunningham - Founder YWAM
The Reality Of The Vision
è In 1997 alone YWAM had over 10,000 full-time staff and 240,000 short-term missionaries.
è Currently there are 531 operating centers in 128 nations.
è YWAM is one of the largest mission sending organizations in the world.
è YWAM has involved over 1 million people in missions since its beginning in 1960.
3 Methods Of Action
YWAM embraces three methods of action, ways which we believe God has given us to be a part of the goal of taking the Gospel to the whole earth.
EVANGELISM
TRAINING
MERCY MINISTRY
Evangelism
Spreading God's message
According to the latest statistics 90% of children are born into families who will never hear about Jesus without help from outside influence. There are 1 million children born every 5 days in the world who will not hear about Jesus unless someone from outside their family goes to them. Over 200 diverse branches of ministry focus on bringing this generation to relationship with Christ.
Youth With A Mission embraces
every opportunity for evangelism

At the center of YWAM's training is the University of the Nations (U of N), which has 140 branch campuses spread throughout the world. The University offers 7 areas of study, each one equipping the student to become an effective Christian and soulwinner.
U of N offers degree programs in:

Mercy Ministries earn the right for the Gospel to be heard by demonstrating the love of God to the poor and needy.
A fleet of Mercy Ships is the primary expression of Mercy Ministries. One ship has living quarters for 450 people and a hospital with 3 operating rooms which is able to treat 35 patients. These mercy workers deliver millions of pounds of relief supplies, perform hundreds of surgeries, and preach the Gospel to thousands of victims of natural disasters each year.
YWAM Campaigns
YWAM Campaigns is a ministry division of YWAM that utilizes the concept of campaign style evangelism to present the Gospel. It was founded in 1993 by Mark Anderson and its headquarters are located in Kansas City Missouri. It consists of the following three goals:
¨ By facilitating awakening & revival in a city area
¨ By bringing the 'Impact World Tour' campaign
¨ By training through 'The School of Campaign Style Evangelism '
The Vision: To systematically reach every person on earth with the Gospel using prayer and campaign-style evangelism, with comprehensive follow-up discipleship.
The Impact World Tour
America, Scandinavia, Australia, India, Brazil and Beyond
The Impact World Tour provides opportunity and focus
God’s people have the opportunity to come together and seek the Lord for the welfare of their community and the salvation of their family and friends. It provides an effective and relevant means for the local church to express Christ’s message of hope. Using international performing arts, sporting and musical groups in campaign style evangelism, Impact World Tour provides a focal point for Christian witness in regions throughout America and beyond.
Impact World Tour has 3 broad aims:
¨ …to strengthen existing church ministries. Several months before the actual events, directors will be networking with local pastors, churches and business leaders to maximize local involvement in all events.
¨ …to help reach the lost in an area. In partnership with local churches, we’ll pray and work to fulfill the Great Commission, incorporating the use of teams like “Heal Our Land”, Team Extreme, GX-Jam and Island Breeze.
¨ …to challenge America with a call to missions. From the days of the pioneers, America has produced some of the finest and most dedicated missionaries.
Impact World Tour is more than an event!
The exciting prayer strategies, the maximized involvement of local Christians in planning and preparations, the seminars on personal growth and revival, the encouragement and facilitation of personal friendship evangelism, workshops on counseling and the comprehensive follow-up program, all work together to bring forth lasting fruit. It’s a 10-12 month process that aims to make a lasting impact in peoples lives, churches and communities.

The Impact World Tour
Consists of 3 Phases
Phase One - Awakening
is designed to arouse and unite the churches in a target region. Christians are challenged to unity
and prayer.
Phase Two - Evangelism
A siries of campaign meetings that employ a host of evangelistic tools geared to presenting the Gospel in a variety of stimulating, contemporary ways without
compromising the message.
Phase Three - Follow-up & Discipleship
Designed to ensure each new believer is nurtured and is encouraged to attend a church prepared for new Christians. Evangelism also continues in Phase Three. In less developed nations this includes church planting, literacy traiing, medical missions and Bible training of future leaders.
PHASE ONE
Revive America Seminar
"...It's time for America to be stirred again in its 'apostolic call' to be a lighthouse to the world... It must see a restoration of values that made it great."
-Loren Cunningham-
Revival must come. But how?
The keys to revival are the same in each generation:
Spiritual hunger
Humble prayer
Repentance
The beginning place is within the Church. The question is, will we allow God to begin this work in us?
The Seminars offer several days of cutting edge teaching and prayer, designed to stir hearts, confront apathy and move the hand of God. The Seminar will feature some of YWAM's finest speakers who teach on prayer, worship, Bible meditation, and historical awakenings.
PHASE TWO
The Impact World Tour
Team Extreme
World-class athletes who perform outstanding feats of strength, encouraging young people to excel in all that they do and to take a stand for righteousness.
GX-Jam International
A worldwide ministry of teens & young adults of all ages who use performing arts, extreme sports, and to bring a message of love and hope in Christ.
Island Breeze
Missionaries to and from the Polynesian Islands who use their native music, dance and song to redeem cultures and share their faith.
The Goal: To use strategic evangelistic campaigns to reach the unreached.
PHASE THREE
Follow-up & Discipleship
Discipleship programs immediately follow the campaign to begin to establish the new believers into their faith and a local church. Seminars will follow up with teaching on redeeming and restoring the foundation of our society to godliness. Participating Churches do the follow-up to facilitate personal relationships, and lasting fruit.
