Building bridges


YWAM Arua has always seen short-term teams as part of our long-term vision. We host outreach teams from other YWAM bases and churches around the world. Just in the last month we've had teams from Germany, South Africa, and the USA.

This team is a combined Discipleship Training School, and School of Worship, outreach from the Tyler, Texas base.

They joined hands with an outreach team from the School of Frontier Missions in South Africa to make a physical representation of the Vision of our base.

We believe God has called YWAM Arua to be a bridge of God's healing to the people of West Nile, Southern Sudan, North Eastern DR Congo, Central African Republic and beyond by rebuilding broken lives, restoring hope, and equipping the church for the discipling of the nations.


Eventually we plan to build a permanent footbridge here that will be a physical reminder of the task God has given us to reach the hurting and lost with His unfathomable love.

What a privilege to parter with Him in bringing hope to the hurting, and what a joy to do it with people from all around the world.

Thanks to all the teams and visitors who give their time, skills and resources to join us...we couldn't do it without you!
