What if you could gather people from all nations into one place to share with them the hope of Jesus Christ? What if you could reach the rich, the poor, the famous, the ordinary, the not-so-ordinary all in one city? Musicians, actors, artists, college students, families, the homeless, teenagers, tourists, businessmen. The list can go on and on. All in one place, one city...

Ministry Teams at YWAM Metro NY

Based on twitter alerts the past 2 hours: Please be in prayer for Lakeside Montana right now, as they in the middle of a recommended evacuation. There is a forest fire blazing on the mountain behind the base. Pray that the fire will be stopped before it gets to the base!

GO Camps

Our GO campers, Andrew and David had a wonderful time working with the team from North Carolina. It was an amazing growing experience for the both of them. They worked with many different ministries, and they traveled all over New York City. God really worked in their lives over the course of the week, and they had an amazing time working with the team.

City Ministries

We had 6 teams that we worked with this summer coming from states like Texas, Ohio, Florida and South Carolina. They helped us with Prayer Stations in Harlem and Union Square where we saw people come to the Lord. We also joined with other ministries like NYC Relief, World Vision, Operation Exodus and Father's Heart. This provided a wide variety of opportunities for these youth groups to evangelize, work with the homeless and do after-school ministries. We try to go to the same places so we have a long-term impact- to the point that even the restaurants we choose to eat at start to get to know us. Another great opportunity for sharing the Gospel in the city. We thank you for all your prayers for this summer!

We are being joined by two new staff members who have a big heart for New York City and can't wait to get here!! Matt was part of the first City DTS and Ange did a Performing Arts DTS with us in Smithtown. Both of them will be joining us in the fall to help Ashley prepare for the second City DTS in January. We are so thrilled to have them come on our team so pray for them for their provision in finances and their visas.

Last night we welcomed home our team of six from the GO Camp international outreach. They have just spent two weeks in an undisclosed nation assisting the long-term missionaries in the area and leading vacation Bible schools. It was a great success!

Our GO Camp domestic outreach begins on Monday inside New York City. They will be partnering with our city staff and a visiting youth group from North Carolina for daily outreach in the city. Keep them in your prayers!
