Discipleship Training School

The DTS is a full-time Christian training school, run by Youth With A Mission (YWAM).
It is designed such that individuals are required to pull away from their jobs, schools, and the everyday cares of life, for a specific time period – giving their undivided attention to being moulded into undeniable Christ-likeness.

What’s The Purpose Of A DTS?

  • To INSPIRE and CULTIVATE GROWTH in one’s relationship with God resulting in Christ-like character, which is based on a solid Biblical Foundation, the work of the Holy Spirit and the personal application of Biblical truth, especially concerning God’s Character, the Cross and empowering Grace.
  • To GATHER and CHALLENGE PEOPLE to worship, listen to and obey God, releasing them (in the context of the DTS) to serve through evangelism, intercession, acts of compassion and other expressions of God’s heart for the world, possibly even pioneering new ministries.
  • To SHARPEN one’s ability to relate to, learn from and work with people, including those of different cultures, personalities and perspectives.
  • To further EQUIP each one to serve God’s purposes either in or outside of YWAM Family of Ministries, strengthening a commitment to reach the lost, especially the unreached, to care for the poor, and to influence all areas of society.
  • To IMPART the vision and foundational values of Youth With A Mission International as well as that of the host operating location and to provide information regarding a variety of opportunities for service.
