Our Training and Work with YWAM is on an entirely voluntary basis, before leaving the UK we did everything possible to save money and fundraise, but now that we are involved in long-term overseas missions work our initial investment in training could come to nothing if we cannot live in missions in the long term, a lack of financial support is the number 1 reasons for Christians leaving missions work.

That is why we would really appreciate if you would prayerfully consider financially supporting us monthly.

We are able to receive Gift aid on any money given to us by UK Taxpayers, which means for every £100 we receive, gift aid allows us to reclaim about £28 from the Government which overall is a massive boost to our support.

We are using a UK Christian bank called Sovereign to administrate our finances and claim back the Gift Aid on our behalf. They have very helpfully created a simple form for us to be able to accept one-off gifts and monthly support, click here to download it, then you can print it, fill it out, and send it to:

Stewardship, PO BOX 99, Loughton, Essex, IG10 3QJ, UK

If you’d like us to send you a paper copy, just email us and let us know.

GIFT AID PARTNERSHIP

Stewardship

If you are a UK Tax payer we can receive both one off gifts and monthly support and claim the charity tax back from it through Christian organisation Stewardship, this helps us immensely adding around £20 to every £100 we receive. Although it involves a little more effort we would really appreciate you giving to us through this method as the tax refund significantly increases your giving.

To print off the gift aid form for Stewardship, please click here.

PLEDGE

If you don’t want to support us immediately but are planning to in the future we are asking people to pledge their support or one-off donation on this form. Letting us know early on, helps us hugely in the task of budgeting for DTS and beyond.

WHY RELATIONSHIP BASED SUPPORT?

YWAM is set up in a way that means that from top to bottom, EVERYONE in the organisation raises their own financial support; This is because they believe there is something important about how relationship-based mission support works; it means that missionaries continue to have strong relationships with their church, friends and family, so that missionaries can be sent out and supported in prayer, logistics and finance and the supporters can share in their stories of how the Gospel is transforming lives, and know that they were part of making it happen. (Paul talks about this in Phillipians 4v17).

YWAM’s reliance on relationship-based support has also created a culture of deep dependency on God. Since YWAM has no central funding, it means that everything YWAM does is impossible from the outset without God’s direct intervention and provision. Because of this YWAM has an incredible heritage of stories of God’s provision against the odds. (We would encourage everyone to read Daring to Live on the Edge by Loren Cunningham on this subject).

We have already seen the miraculous provision of our DTS fee’s which were over £10,000 from our saving strategies, gifts and support within 10 Months (contact us for more specific stories, it really was incredible).
