Mission Building
A couple of month’s ago it was recommended to me by a viewer of the YWAM News Show to have a look at Mission Builders, after he and his daughter had a great experience with them.
Mission Builders International has many opportunities for individuals and for teams. You can check out some of the work that they have done recently on their Facebook Page.
You can head over to their web-site, missionbuilders.org, so explore some of the options that are available.
No Boundaries Book Released
Loren Cunningham’s last book, No Boundaries Within God’s Will, was recently released. It is described as:
No Boundaries tells Loren Cunningham’s climactic experiences in global travel that reveal essential elements for your own all-or-nothing path. Each story is fused with key Biblical principles, inviting you to escape boxes of fear, doubt, or confusion. Clear examples and practical steps will help you find and follow God’s vision.

YWAM Sunset Country in Jamaica
YWAM Sunset Country in Ontario, Canada, recently had a team at YWAM Montego Bay in Jamaica. While they were there they worked to support the local ministry with their local work, and also helping with some of the infrastructure at their centre.
Armour Bearer Ministry was developed to support others in the mission field to better equip them to the calling God has for them. For their ministry trip to Jamaica the brought a team of skilled workers to help with a bunch of much needed electrical upgrades and repairs!
This is a huge blessing for the local ministry, and allows the team to fulfil the calling that God has on them.

YWAM South Sudan
Despite all the continued unrest in South Sudan, where ongoing conflict, food insecurity, and poor health outcome continue, YWAM continues to operate different ministries in the region.
The YWAM Outreach Centre Magwi continues to serve the people in Eastern Equatoria. They run Sunday services, do local outreach, and run a children’s ministry.
Last year they also started translating the Bible into the local Lokoya language, which is spoken by the Lokoya people in Central Equatoria and Eastern Equatoria in South Sudan. They have translated the book of Ruth into the Lokoya language, and they have the hope and faith that another book will be translated in the future. Many love the translation and they wish the whole bible would be translated, and this could be a complete light to the Lokoya people. (source)

Island Reach Deployment Delayed
We have been following the overall of the newest YWAM ship the Island Reach since December 2021 when it was first purchased. The ship’s overhall is complete, with the accommodation and medical facilities being complete, as well as all mechanical and electrical updates done.
Unfortunately, with the unrest happening in the Middle East, the costs to deliver the vessel to Madagascar has increased drastically. The ship will now have to piggyback on a much larger ship to go to Durban, South Africa, and then sail to Madagascar from there.
It is estimated that another £200,000 is needed before it can set sail. You can find out more about how to donate and get involved on the YWAM Ships Switzerland web-site, ywamships.ch.
Update!
The information published about the newest YWAM ship is not current information – and it’s not information that a decision by the board of executives for YWAM ships. As a board we are in a prayerful process deciding on transport and delivery of the vessel. This week the Ares Sea route has opened and we are investigating a departure in these next couple months.
Piggy-backing the vessel was something we looked into. But for now this stayed and option and we are trusting the Lord for safe passage this summer.
