Who we are
YWAM Cáceres is a family of God's children who live in communion. We are a refuge and a home. We are part of something big, the Youth With A Mission family, and even bigger: the Kingdom of God.
Youth With A Mission
YWAM is a global movement of Christians from many cultures, age groups and Christian traditions, dedicated to serving Jesus throughout the world. We are united by one purpose: to know God and make Him known.
When we began in 1960, our focus was to help young people get involved in missions. Today we still focus on youth and include people of all ages. YWAM works as a family of ministries rather than a centralised organisation.
Three main areas
- Evangelism
- Training
- Mercy ministry
Our ministries cover every sphere of society: ship-based medical care, performing arts, Bible training, business coaching, sports, anti-trafficking work and much more.
YWAM Cáceres
We are one of the YWAM bases in Spain, founded in December 2009. Since then we have served the city of Cáceres and its region by supporting local churches, sharing the Gospel through friendships, serving in nursing homes, distributing Bibles, and through art teams, open mic nights and gatherings for artists.
We have sent missionaries to
- Spain
- Portugal
- France
- Germany
- Malta
- Morocco
- Tanzania
- India
Among others, on short-term mission trips.
Our vision
Inspired and guided by God and His Word, we will be an urban base focused on discipling society through the areas of influence, from three foundational pillars: training, arts and evangelism.
Our mission
We are a family of God's children who live in communion. We are a refuge and a home. We empower people and open doors for ministry.
Our pillars
Training
We want to see everyone who joins our courses and events grow, whether students, churches or anyone in the city. Our schools are based on the Bible, led by the Holy Spirit, relevant to today and connected to practice.
Arts
Through art we reach both reason and emotion, develop human sensitivity and share ideas. Art is an expression of God the Creator Himself, and Cáceres is a deeply artistic city. We are a safe place for artists to grow in skill and character.
Evangelism
We love Cáceres, Spain and its people. We want to see people know God and grow a deep relationship with Him. We do it through friendships, events in the city and a life of integrity, honesty and love.
Connected with God, serving the city.
