YWAM Outreach Center Kansas City



Our Mission...

...is to Know God and to Make Him Known

YWAMOC Kansas City, The YWAM Outreach Center in Kansas City, is a ministry of YWAM International. Youth With A Mission (YWAM) encompasses thousands of people and hundreds of ministries in almost every country of the world. In every case, our passion is to know God and to make Him known.

We are a mixture of people from all over the world, from 149 countries in fact. In many of our locations, people from a wide variety of nations serve side by side. We come from numerous different Christian denominations and speak hundreds of languages. Nearly half of our staff come from "non-western" countries, such as Brazil, Korea, Indonesia, India and Nepal.

The YWAM Outreach Center Kansas City is like other YWAM organizations in the following ways:

• The pre-requisite of the Discipleship Training School.

• The mandate to "know God and make Him known" (Is. 6:8; Matt. 28:18-20; Col. 1:10).

• A three fold ministry of:
    evangelism (Rom. 10:14-15),
    mercy ministry (Matt. 5, Eph. 2:10), and
    training/discipleship (Mark 16:15).

• A shared statement of faith, vision and values.

All YWAM locations are also tied together and held accountable by regional and international leadership teams. YWAM's international leadership group is called the Global Leadership Team (GLT). This team consists of about 45 regional and international YWAM leaders. The GLT meets once a year to pray, discuss vision and address major trends and issues. GLT task forces meet year round.
