Teaching the next wave of YWAM Missionaries

While teaching this week at training session here in Orlando, I heard Tasha share the roots of her call to become a missionary with YWAM. Since she was a young child her heart has broken with compassion for people who have the least of in this world. Now she is committed to personally share the most valuable gift in the world to them, Jesus!
Youth With a Mission now has over 16,000 full-time volunteers around the world like Tasha. To be effective ministers of the Gospel each of these dedicated men and women have the great challenge of finding committed financial sponsors. Twenty of these minsters have traveled the world and are now in Orlando focused on learning effective principals and methods to find the financial support team that God wants to provide for them. I have had the privilege of teaching and acting as a "Coach". Most of these YWAM'ers are just starting their careers and their passion to reach the world for Jesus. Each have a vision including, orphaned children, youth at risk or the developing christian leaders around the world and I am continually inspired to help them to effectively achieve their dreams.
