Circles of
relationship.
YWAM is a relationship-based mission. We value relationships and work in teams and communities across the region – so we created Circles of Relationship to carry the work we need to do as an area.

CE Area Circles
Backbone and pop-up circles.
The Area Circle Team (ACT) has created several Backbone Circles to make sure our staff are cared for in the best way, to ensure good communication in our area, and to host strong DTSs across Central Europe.
We also have Pop-up Circles for events and happenings around the area, such as CE conferences and task groups.
Common Grown Circles
Born from passion.
We love to see initiatives grow, and Common Grown Circles flow from people with a passion for different ministries – prayer circles, school and seminar circles, and interest circles such as working within Muslim, Orthodox or Catholic cultures, café ministry or language learning.
