Youth With A Mission (YWAM) is an interdenominational, global Christian missions organization run entirely by volunteers with the desire to know God and make God known. YWAM Canberra is one of the many bases that are part of the YWAM international and YWAM Australia families.
Despite being the National Capital of Australia, not everyone has heard of Canberra! Canberra is a city of almost 5 hundred thousand people, nestled in the Southern Highlands, surrounded by forests and the Snowy Mountains. The city itself is a beautiful mixing pot of urban and rural lifestyles, with splashes of international flavors. Canberra hosts incredible restaurants, wineries, stunning National Parks, snow speckled mountain ranges, national and international festivals and Australia's Parliament House.
Our YWAM Canberra base was established in the 1960's on a gorgeous 6 ha (15 Acres) property only 8km from the city center. Here at YWAM Canberra we're all about creating a healthy, God centered community that loves our local and international neighbors in practical ways through local connections, training schools and mercy ministries. If you'd like to learn more about us and what we have going on we'd love to hear from you!
