This blogsite is about my work with an organization called YWAM (Youth With A Mission). I staff a program called Discipleship Training School or DTS, and this is where people who are 18 and up choose to leave there normal lives for 6 months, to do work for God. During these six months we give them training for the first 3 months and then we lead them in missions for God in countries around the world.

DTS and YWAM
So these are some of the DTS Staff members,(The child is the son of the director of the base) the staff members are the people that tell me what to do and take care of any concerns that i may have. There are around 20 or so full time staff members at Holmsted and none of them are paid they all raise support for their time with YWAM. This is the same for all people in the YWAM organization and there are roughly between 20,000 to 30,000 people working with YWAM (None of them paid). They have bases all over the world there are over 500 bases located in different countries around the world.
The name of the program that I am in is called DTS(DiscipleshipTrainingSchool). This is a program where people of all different ages come(Single and Married). We take classes in Theology and Evangelism while trying to find our calling in God's kingdom. We do this for 3 months and then we are sent to another country for 3 months on "outreach" and it has to be cross-cultural so it cannot be the country that you are from.
