Welcome! Karibu!

Welcome to the website of YWAM Dar es Salaam / Mwandege, Tanzania.

YWAM is short for Youth With A Mission, an international volunteer movement of Christians from many backgrounds, cultures and Christian traditions, dedicated to serving Jesus Christ throughout the world. Our purpose is simply to know God and to make Him known.

We are conveniently located about twenty kilometers south of Dar es Salaam on Kilwa Road (B2) in the village of Mwandege, which enables us to serve as a hub for ministry and outreach throughout Tanzania. We are also a convenient place to stop on the way to any destination in East Africa.

Our large base and diverse ministries provide many opportunities to serve and reach out. See the Ministries tab for a full description or other opportunities to give. We host our own DTS every February, and are also able to host your DTS and/or outreach in the villages near our base and in Tanzania. We work with pastors and churches of several denominations locally and facilitate outreach with these partners, as well as provide translation and transportation.

We welcome you to come and be a part of what God is doing in coastal Tanzania, East Africa. May God bless you, speak to you and guide you, that may you be faithful to obey His Word and live out His purpose for your life!
