Who We Are »
Overview
David Livingstone ... Gladys Aylward ... William Carey ... Hudson Taylor ...
Eric Liddell ... Amy Carmichael ... and countless others ... the British Isles
have a renowned history of sending missionaries to reach out to those who do
not know Jesus. But we don't want this just to apply to history, we want it
to build on that tradition - today!
We in YWAM England want to play our part in seeing a new wave of British missionaries
going out across the world with the love of Jesus. YWAM England seeks to follow
the command of Christ in Matthew 28 to go and make disciples of all nations
and peoples – to know God and make Him known.

YWAM England has a number of training centres countrywide, where you can receive
discipleship training and further
training to equip you for life - be that as a missionary with YWAM or
another missionary agency or if you want to return to the marketplace. For
