Youth With a Mission (YWAM) is a Christian Organization with campuses in many diffrent countries all over the world. The vision of YWAM as a whole is ''Know God and Make God Known'' YWAM works primarily with youth and young adults equipping them with skills and knoledge on various topics through schools and ministires. Most importantly though helping them grow in their knwledge of Christ then sharing what they learned to others.
One of the main things all YWAM campuses do is run courses through the University of the Nations. These courses vary from education, bibical studies, art, dance, photography, discipleship training school, and more. Though, the main courses that all YWAM campuses run is discipleship training school. Which is a missionary training school split into two parts: lecture phase and outreach phase. Lecture phase is where students spend 3 months in the classroom studying the bible and being equipped for missions. Outreach is where students put their learning into action and often travel to a diffrent country to do the work of a missionary.
Each YWAM campus is slightly diffrent and holds their own unique vision as well as veries on the ministires and classes they offer. THough at the same time, every single YWAM campus strives to uphold the grand vision of ''Know God and make God known.''.
Our campus, YWAM Port of Peace, is located on the very north end of Haiti in the city of Port de PAix. The vision of our campus is to '' Be Disciples THat Make Disciples''. This means that we want to first be and learn. ''Be'' is the conscious act of living in the identity with which Christ has given us. As well as growing in our own learning, gifts, skills, and talents. THe second part of our vision is ''Make''. This part is then taking what we know and multiplying that gift, skill or talent to share it with others.
How we live this vision out practically on our campus is through our community outreaches, groups and classes, and discipleship training school. This summer alone we will be running 6 diffrent groups/classes that meet weekly. These groups center on diffrent topics such as: English, Music & Worship, Dance, Young Mens group, Womens group, and kids group. In each of these groups, participants learn new life skills such as the English language while at the same time learing a biblical element.
