Mission Statement: 

To create equip and enact reproducible evangelistic methods that introduce people to a relationship with Jesus Christ.

We seek to understand the heart of lost people and respond with relevant models to reach them with the gospel.

Organizational Statement of Faith: 

Youth With A Mission (YWAM) is an international movement of Christians from many denominations dedicated to presenting Jesus personally to this generation, to mobilizing as many as possible to help in this task, and to the training and equipping of believers for their part in fulfilling the Great Commission.

As citizens of God's kingdom, we are called to love, worship, and obey our Lord, to love and serve His Body, the Church, and to present the whole gospel for the whole person throughout the whole world.

We of Youth With A Mission believe:

that the Bible is God's inspired and authoritative word, revealing that Jesus Christ is God's son; that people are created in God's image;

that He created us to have eternal life through Jesus Christ;

that although all people have sinned and come short of God's glory, God has made salvation possible through the death on the cross and resurrection of Jesus Christ;

that repentance, faith, love and obedience are fitting responses to God's initiative of grace towards us;

that God desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth;

and that the Holy Spirit's power is demonstrated in and through us for the accomplishment of Christ's last commandment, "...Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature" (Mark 16:15).
