LIFE IS ABOUT MORE THAN JUST SURVIVING. SOMETHING DEEP INSIDE OUR BEING LONGS TO RUN IN THE FREEDOM OF OUR PURPOSE.

Can you hear the call of the wild?

In the summer of 2019 we are planning on taking groups of young adults into the nations to spread the Gospel message of Jesus Christ. This is not going to be a vacation, but a month-long challenge. We are looking for young adults who are wanting to step into their identity as warriors for the kingdom of God. Jesus was serious when He gave the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20) and so are we.

Locations

OPTION A: Join a team

Join a team on outreach to one of the following locations:

Nightlife outreach in Romania

Join YWAM Constanta in sharing Jesus’s love and care with holiday makers during the night and early morning. Connect, chat, offer coffee and prayer. (Possible 10 day option)
Every summer the beaches are flooded with young people looking for pleasure in alcohol, sex, and drugs. Our desire is to offer them an encounter with Jesus!

People from all over the Balkans flock to Durres for their holidays. We want to give them a chance to hear the Good News and to impart a passion for mission to young Albanians.

Bible Distribution in Mongolia

Be part of reaching this beautiful nation with the Gospel. Partner with local believers and others from around the world in giving away the life-changing word of God.
86% of people in this vast and beautiful land still haven’t heard about Jesus. We want to give them all a chance to read his word and prepare for a move of his Spirit.

OPTION B: Bring a team

If you're part of a CU or church group that would like to go on outreach together, please get in touch. We'd love to support you in sharing Jesus more widely.

OPTION C: Build a team

If you've already done a YWAM DTS and would like to lead an outreach to a location of your choice, we can support you in recruiting a team and making appropriate preparations. You'll be responsible for your team while on outreach, but we'll provide training and debrief for your team in the UK at the beginning and end of the programme. 

History

In 1885, seven Cambridge students left the UK to take the Gospel to Chi na’s lost millions. For them this was a radical response to Christ’s call to “go into all the world.” One of the students was CT Studd, a world-famous cricketer and all seven had privileged backgrounds. Before departing, the Seven toured UK universities and when other students saw that these who “had everything” were “giving it all up” to sow their lives into missions, they were stunned. Hundreds were inspired to follow. Seventy years later another seventy students went out, inspired by the Seven to devote two years of the lives to international missions. Today, this wild call to follow Christ and to go into all the world, even unto the ‘ends of the earth’, is still going out. God is still calling. Will you follow?

The first few days of Call of the Wild will consist of training at a UK YWAM base. We will do our best to equip you to be effective for the kingdom of God. You will then depart to an outreach location where you'll work with your team to present the Gospel message in a way that serves the local people. This could vary from mercy ministry to street evangelism. After spending three weeks on the mission field you will come back for a time of debriefing and sharing your stories with the other teams. And those stories will be with you for the rest of your life.
