Stories from a Student, Staff, and Volunteer

"YWAM Mazatlan is a place that has taught me not only how to know God more but to depend on Him and lead in the way He calls me to. I've learned how to pursue the vision and dreams that He has placed on my life. My life has taken a radical 180-degree turn, but I don’t regret for a second obeying God’s voice to go to YWAM Mazatlan."

“Volunteering at YWAM Mazatlan for a month was an incredible multicultural experience that changed my life forever. Through my time there, I was able to grow closer to God and feel His presence in ways I never had before. The community at YWAM Mazatlan was so welcoming and loving, and it was amazing to see how they shared God's love with others through ministry. The time I spent at YWAM has given me a new perspective on life, and I feel more connected to God than ever before. I am so grateful for the time I spent there, the lessons I learned and the impact it had on my life.”

"I remember the first time I stepped foot on YWAM Mazatlan and immediately I felt like I was home. And serving here as staff I can truly say this place has become home. It has been a safe place for me to make mistakes, fall but get back up again, and grow into the leader God has called me to be. I am not the same person I was 5 years ago, I am a stronger, more capable leader. God used YWAM Mazatlan to develop me into who I am today."

Impacting the World Through Two Campuses and a Medical Ship

Our ministry is making a significant impact on the world by taking the gospel and medical care to unreached places through our 101-foot-long ship and two campuses in Mazatlan and Durango. From the established and well-connected Mazatlan campus to the developing and adventurous Durango campus, we are intentional about engaging with local communities, serving ministries, and empowering missionaries to share the love of Christ in diverse ways. Our mission is to empower and mobilize missionaries to take the message of the gospel to diverse communities in Mexico and the world.
