My Timing
This year the main theme was "My Timing” and God was emphasizing His timing in many areas: to be known for who He is, to worship Him, and to surrender all our ideas of how He looks and how He should operate in our lives. We had four main sessions: 1- "At the Altar,”...
Christmas Greetings to YWAM Central Europe!
As we take time with friends and family may the Lord bless you and give you great times together. Our kids who are at University will be with us at home for the holidays. We are really looking forward to it. Looking forward with anticipation and...
Missionary Level: 1 Year
I’ve been a full-time missionary for a little over one year now with YWAM Budapest in Central Europe. It’s been a blur of a year, but at the same time I feel like I’ve been here for a decade. Maybe that’s how it's supposed to feel when you’re doing what God has called...
YWAM Ustron new property!
June 10th of 2022 YWAM Poland officially took ownership of a property for the first time. The dwelling is situated in South Poland in a small quaint town called Ustron, where it served as a hotel for several decades. The YWAM Ustron building consists of a main...
Honoring a Hero
Terry Williams was a legend in YWAM. He came most alive out on the streets with a microphone in his hand, preaching the good news and salvation of Jesus Christ, or leading a team of young missionaries in the Cupid Shuffle dance at a busy metro station. His...

The father and motherheart of leadership
You can’t understand leadership without first understanding fatherhood and motherhood. The new paradigm of leadership in our mission is going from leading an organization to now leading a family; families with children, grand-children, nieces and nephews, and son and...
Personal debriefing: Do I really need that?
I absolutely love it when dreams become reality, don’t you? In October, a dream of mine became a reality… In recent years, God has been stirring something up in YWAM Europe. “That’s nothing new,” you may say. “We’re YWAM! God is always stirring something up!” Yes,...
Report from the YWAM Frontier Missions Global Leaders Assembly in Egypt
Greece is a place where the unreached meet the Christian world. As well as established churches, we also have ministry work among refugees coming from the Middle East that never heard the gospel before. But, there are also many other Muslim populations elsewhere...
ACT meeting in Krakow
In October, our Central European Area Circle Team (ACT) met in Krakow, Poland. We hadn't met in person since 2019 (we are zoom experts though!) and had added a few new people since then, so it really was great for us to get together again. Here we are in one of...
The Kingdom of God in Business!
My husband and I grew up in communist Bulgaria. I remember the first years after the fall of the wall – interesting times. God was moving in the country. The Mafia flourished too. Christians had to learn to live...
The Lada Story – one old car’s story.
Have you ever traveled to a new nation and been amazed by all the new things the nation has? …new food, new culture and, in many cases, also new cars. When I landed in Texas some years ago, I rented a car that I had never heard about, and that we don’t have in Europe…...
Warm for Winter – A great start!
Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. Psalms 91:1 For the past two weeks we had over 70 volunteers come from all over the world to help us build just under 50 temporary shelters for this coming...
