We run a variety of programs and ministries here in Vancouver, with the goal of launching people of all ages into the life that they were made for!

We run training programs to help equip you for wherever life may lead you, whether you're new to this whole "Jesus thing", or you've been a believer all your life. We also have various ministries that you can be a part of, reaching out to everyone from the business people of Vancouver, to the children of Mongolia. We also run programs geared towards high school students, giving you a place to be involved, where you might have otherwise been told you are too young. We are continually growing and developing new programs and ministries, discovering ways to reach out to the city we live in, and the world beyond our borders.

We offer a range of training programs, from YWAM's entry level program, Discipleship Training School (DTS), or the Snowboarders DTS (SDTS), to second level schools like the Chronological School of Biblical Studies (CSBS) and the School of Ministry and Leadership Development (SOMLD).

We are actively involved in several spheres of society here and abroad, with everything from preschools and publication of children's books, to marriage workshops and connecting with the business world. Whatever your passion, you belong.

We are passionate about giving young people a chance to be involved in missions, which is why we offer a variety of programs for teens. Whether you're part of a group, or on your own, we have a place for you to see how you can make a difference.
