What is Youth With A Mission (YWAM)?

YWAM Lausanne began in 1969 when Loren and Darlene Cunningham (founders of Youth With A Mission) started the first ywam training program. Since then, YWAM Lausanne has been a place where many new ministries and other ywam bases have started. YWAM’s international ministry is three-fold, encompassing evangelism, mercy ministry, and training and discipleship. Each year some 10,000 students attend a YWAM school at one our training locations. YWAM Currently operates in more than 1,000 locations in over 150 countries, with a staff of nearly 16,000 and we send out over 25,000 short-term missionaries each year. Come and do your DTS at YWAM Lausanne and open your life up to the thousands of YWAM mission opportunities around the world!
