About YWAM Arua

YWAM Arua is called to be a sending Base, to train, equip and mobilize into missions. Training leaders in our Crossroads Training School (CDTS) accomplish these goals. It is an intensive six months course designed with a holistic approach aimed at personal character development cultivating a living relationship with God and ministering to the needs of people. Once the leaders have caught the vision, they will be able to support their young people as we mobilise them through the DTS to reach the unreached and go out to the nations. We aim to light the fire in their hearts for missions by running Go Camps.

Our desire is to see bases started and established in Eastern Congo, Central Africa Republic, and Southern Sudan. Currently we give support to the base in Yei Southern Sudan.
