For Bible students who want to do their internship, or for those who simply wants to get to know another region, or another church in Germany, there are many opportunities to work with our missionaries. There are many different church planting projects all over Germany, a missionary café in Dresden, refugee work and much more.

Greece is very popular as a holiday destination with its landscape, about 300 days of sunshine per year, its historical background and its sights. Living here can be a great challenge, however, as culture and mentality are very different from that of Western Europe, even if the people here are open to new things, very sociable and helpful.
For more than a decade, Greece has been affected by various crises, first the economic crisis, then the ongoing refugee movement, and now the global Covid 19 crisis. Of course, this has an impact on the lives of the individual citizens of the country; the problems often seem insurmountable and the quality of life is severely limited.

Latvia has been a member of the EU since 2004. The Evangelical Lutheran Church has the most members. But the charismatic congregations are also strongly represented. There is freedom of belief and there are many churches and congregations in the big cities.
“Ganchauskas” is a Christian recreation centre located 70 km from Riga, right in the nature reserve on the river “Gajau”, which, with its many caves, is one of the most beautiful places in Latvia. “Ganchauskas” is located in a clearing in a forest, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Furthermore, Ganchauskas offers people some leisure activities, such as horseback riding, climbing wall, arrow and bow etc. The leisure centre consists of 4 buildings, 8 cottages and an area of about 100 hectares.

Liberia is a very interesting country. One of the oldest states in Africa, with strong influence from America, well developed and relatively prosperous until about 30 years ago, then completely destroyed by civil war. The majority of the population profess Christianity, but it is not alive: corruption, deceit, envy, violence, sexual sin and idolatry (yes, many Liberians actually worship various other gods!) are ubiquitous.
The Youth With A Mission team is working with Liberians to build the City of Hope mission station outside the capital Monrovia. It is used as a center of formation and spiritual formation, but also as a place where the Word of God is lived.
Proclamation of the Gospel happens through children’s and youth programmes, sports (football, volleyball) and cooperation with local churches and schools. Due to its quiet location and proximity to the beach, YWAM City of Hope also offers an opportunity to stop and contemplate.

Lithuania is the southernmost of the three Baltic countries. Since the fall of the Wall in 1990, the population (3. 4 million) has become more and more open to Western influence. Lithuania has been a member of the EU since 2004. Lithuanians are enthusiastic basketball fans. Most Lithuanians have a high opinion of Germans. Lithuanians love to be together – especially the younger generation. Most are nominally Catholic. The proportion of Evangelical Christians is 0. 3%. That is why there is a great need for Christian literature, discipleship and church building. Most municipalities are not older than 20 years. This first generation of Christians must be led, shaped and mobilized.

Romania has a population of 21. 5 million. Approx. 86% of Romanians belong to the Romanian Orthodox Church.
The people of Romania do not earn much and often have to struggle to survive. Many young people go abroad because they have hardly any prospects in their own country.
We have missionaries in several places in the country and would like to introduce you to three possible locations:

CHILDREN´S HOME MANA (MANA)

The children’s home Mana is located in Timisoara in western Romania. It consists of a girls’ and a boys’ house. The home is run by a German family.

TORCHBEARER CENTRE (TC)

The torchbearer centre is located in the middle of the Carpathians in beautiful nature. It offers tent camps for up to 120 children, mountain bike and outdoor camps in summer, skiing in winter and Bible schools in spring and autumn. In between, all sorts of trainings and community recreational activities are offered. The torchbearers staff are a very international team. The families come from Romania, Canada and Germany. This allows you to practice and continue your training in all three languages.

Slovenia has 2 million inhabitants and is about the size of Hesse or Saxony-Anhalt. Despite the “smallness” of the country, it offers great diversity to offer in terms of its nature, but also in terms of the nature of the people. Slovenia has three different climatic zones and there are 38 different Slovenian dialects.
Despite this diversity and fantastic beauty, Slovenia has one of the highest suicide rates in Europe, one of the highest abortion rates, and many people are looking for meaning. The work in the community in Kamnik offers insights into the founding of a congregation with very flexible facilities and into different fields of work: church services, sports, alpine hiking, children’s club, etc.

Welcome to Uruguay – Bienvenido en Uruguay!

Uruguay is a small, quiet, football-loving country and at the same time the most European country in warm South America with just 3. 5 million inhabitants.
1. 5 hours drive from its capital, Montevideo, is the quiet village of Montes with its almost 2000 inhabitants. In 2017, the Epp family (Werner & Olga with their 3 children) settled here to found and build up a church. They are supported by Merve Doorentz-Hundsdoerffer.
Together as missionaries, they form the leadership team, which has often been strengthened by volunteers.

We invite you to accompany us on the exciting journey of reaching out to more resistant Uruguayans in an atheistic, and above all esoteric-occult, society for the Gospel! For this, God needs voluntary, inexperienced people like you and me, who place themselves at His disposal with their gifts and talents! An adventure with your Creator awaits you, where there are no limits to the possibilities to engage in trusting and building on God!

On the one hand, the quite varied and flexible everyday life revolves around shaping the upcoming church activities (see below) as well as maintaining relationships (house visits, discipleship programme, etc. ). Relationship building is a very important task. Experience has shown that people are quite closed to strangers. Thus it has proved to be effective to build up familiar relationships in order to lead people to the faith and to accompany them in the growth of faith. . .
On the other hand, it is also important to performe practical activities (mowing lawns, handicraft tasks, etc. ).
Your personal service then results from your talents and the tasks ahead.

You will have the opportunity to use, develop and discover your talents in a completely new environment in the most creative way! Besides, you will get to know Uruguay with its rather relaxed people, the world-class beef and the delicious mate tea!
