  • To Mexico and Back: LTS 2004
    (Life in Venezuela) News from the Simpson Family Youth With A Mission, Mérida, Venezuela Volume 8, Issue 2 December 2004 To Mexico and back: LTS 2004 When Darlene Cunningham (Loren Cunningham’s wife, cofounder of YWAM) arrived at the YWAM base in Guadalajara, Mexico a few weeks prior to the three- month Leadership Training School (LTS) she would be directing, her heart sank. The base was still under construction! The third floor of the new dorm that would house 200 staff and students wasn’t even completed! Not only that, but the teams of construction workers that had come to serve from other cities and other countries were going HOME! “This can’t be happening!” she thought. All the prayer, hard work and preparation for this school, and now this! Even though they called in more construction workers and spent the next three weeks hammering, sawing, plumbing - you name it, when the students arrived on March 31, there were still no doors on the dorm rooms, no beds for the many families who were moving in, there were gaping holes for windows, and there was no running water in the three-story dorm! Darlene was beyond frustration. “Why have you allowed this to happen, Lord??” God knows what we need. On the day before the opening session of the LTS, a smiling, seven-year old girl came up to Darlene and announced enthusiastically, “Hi! I’m Michelle, and I LOVE this place!!! The peace of the Lord came over Darlene, as Michelle’s simple, honest words ministered deeply to her heart.

    University of the Nations Catalogue 2014-2016 Université des Nations Universidade das Nações Universidad de las Naciones University of the Nations Catalogue 2014-2016 Universidad de las Naciones Université des Nations Universidade das Nações LETTER FROM THE INTERNATIONAL CHANCELLOR Dear Prospective Student, You have opened the door to one of the greatest adventures on the planet. You can step in and be a part of fulfilling God’s dream of making disciples of every nation (Matthew 28:19-20). And you can do this while studying and getting prepared for your destiny. You can join a truly global university, one that is centered on Jesus Christ, and is dedicated to multiplying missionaries. We have had students from 210 countries join us in this unique “live-learn” envi- ronment, seeking to know God and to make him known. Our training is modular, which means that you are immersed intensively in one subject at a time. It’s practi- cal, with a maximum amount of hands-on experience. Our visiting teachers are experts in their field and dedicated to Jesus. These teachers and our staff depend upon God for revelation to add to their years of study and expertise. They model that dependence upon God for their students. Because of this stimulating environment, our students have developed all kinds of innovations, led by the Holy Spirit. This emphasis on “creating with God” means there’s nothing like a University of the Nations education. Each year our students are being trained in more than 300 courses in over 550 lo- cations, in over 160 nations.

    Lausanne World Pulse, P.O. Box 794, Wheaton, IL 60189. E-mail: [email protected] A FREE monthly, online magazine that provides you with missions and evangelism news, information and analysis. JANUARY 2006 issue WORLD NEWS BRIEFS AROUND THE WORLD With the enormity and increasing frequency of natural disasters, many people may develop a sort of “global desensitization” to the overwhelming amount of information they are receiving from media sources. However, according to Rita Guerra of Bible Pathway Ministries, along with the devastation comes a spike in requests for the Bible and other Christian resources. Many people are wondering if the end times are here and according to Guerra, this is the perfect opportunity to reach out to those affected by the natural disasters and who are seeking to learn more about God through them. (Mission Network News, http://www.mnnonline.org/article/7970) AFRICA Teen Missions International is holding ten boot camps in sub-Saharan Africa designed to train teenagers from Zimbabwe, South Africa, Zambia, Mozambique, Uganda and Tanzania for ministry. Teens involved partake in projects such as building, orphanage work, agriculture, evangelism and other outreach in their native countries. Currently, about two thousand teens are involved. (Mission Network News, http:// www.mnnonline.org/article/8082) ARGENTINA A small church of only two hundred people reached nearly their entire community by distributing more than two thousand copies of the Book of Hope, a harmony of the four Gospels which tells the story of Jesus. Over a two-month period, Pastor Hugo and his congregants placed two thousand copies in the hands of students and visited 1,380 families.
