YWAM Voices

We recently launched a new email magazine called YWAM Voices. This is a replacement for the International YWAMer which we have not published since April 2012.

You can read the first edition here, and subscribe here.

We would find them lying in their ramshackle homes with festering wounds or dirty bandages. “People give us food aid but the quality is so bad we cannot eat it.
