YWAM Solomons Sailboat Project

Earlier this year YWAM Solomons commissioned and launched the VAKA HOP'E, which means the ship of hope.

YWAM Solomons has a vision to use sailboats to reach the most isolated islands with practical aid through locals trained with community development tools.

The ship is a 38 foot sailing catamaran, made from epoxy, wood, and rope, which will make it easier to maintain and repair in the islands. The design actually originates from the Solomon Islands, and is ideally set-up so that in addition to the original vessels, others will be able to be built and maintained in the islands.

YWAM Ships Aotearoa Redeployed to Fiji

The m/v YWAM Koha is getting ready to set sail for their 2023 deployment back into the Pacific next month.

From May through to October, the m/v YWAM KOHA will be up in Fiji, empowering a healthy future for the Fijian people by providing health and dental services free of charge while working to remove the barriers between individuals and the care they need.

Pacific Hope Amazon Outreach

Plans for the Amazon Outreach are well under-way and we need general volunteers, doctors, nurses, dentists, dental assistants, individuals or groups.

The outreaches to the Amazon provide relief in three main areas:

* Medical

* Construction

* Education

For the outreaches they are looking for people to come for a week or more to the Amazon. There will be medical and dental clinics, Bible distribution, children's ministries, and community outreach as needed. In addition to the need for medical professionals, they are need people with multiple skillsets. It takes many hands to run a ship ministry, so your greatest asset is a passion to help others.

Check out the Amazon Reach web-site, marinereachglobal.org/amazon-outreach, to find out how you could volunteer.
