Mission Opportunities

 


Then Jesus came to them and said,

“All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”



—— MATTHEW 28,18-20

 

Our vision is mission

As a part of YWAM and as a base, us as YWAM Kristiansand have a beating heart for missions. We want to facilitate for people to be sent out from our base into the mission field. In the preparation time for those going out, we follow and guide in the process of fixing things before going out. Our heart is to look after our missionaries well, both with paperwork and spiritually.

We want our missionaries to feel prepared in their hearts to go out — and that they feel connected, taken care of and know that they are being prayed for. We therefore have a high value for praying for our missionaries, and do that as a practice every week. And as missionaries return, we do debriefing and follow ups in the transition between cultures and countries.

We love to see people respond to the call on their lives, and say yes to go to the ends of the earth to preach the GOOD NEWS. As of now, we have missionaries working in countries such as Brazil, Thailand, China, Turkey, South Africa and different Asian countries. It is our great privilege to follow them on their journey and to stand with them in the work they do for the Kingdom of God.

So we want to invite you, if you have a heart for missions — either to go, or to support from home, to contact us and we can have a talk about what that can look like for you and how we can support you.

“With burning hearts we will take this task
And give our lives for what you asked
The calls gone out and we must respond
To Your voice

Oh God, here am I, send me
Use me for Your glory
Oh God, Here am I, send me
Pick me up and write your story

And we will go till the whole world knows
That Jesus is alive
And we will run burning with Your love
With fire in our eyes”

— LINDY COFER, ISAIAH 6 (HERE AM I, SEND ME)
