YWAM Osaka DTS

Welcome To YWAM Osaka Asian Center DTS

The God of David, Moses, Paul...

Not just the God of famous characters in the Bible, but my God that created and gave his life for me

Who is God, not only what he has done, but who is God

and who am I

Why was I created, what do I live for

what am I heading for

The ones I love and this world

How do I comprehend, how do I relate with them

to let go of occupied life for a moment

and sit next to God, an encounter, an experience

longing to know who my God is, who I am, and who the world is

to stand firm in God, to walk in Him throughout the rest of your days

We invite you to Osaka DTS.

YWAM Osaka Asian Center DTS

The DTS program is for those who want to take time away from their everyday lives
and learn more about God through a full-time 6-month training period.
It is a season to learn on how to live as Christians together with this world

Outreach in Japan

Christianity came to Japan early as from 1549, but Christianity was also persecuted for more than 200 years that led to many Christian martyrs. The outreach in Japan will be hosted in local Japanese churches and serving the needs of the churches.

Outreach to a Third World country

Koreans and Japanese students will be united to go to East Asian countries that Japan has dominated during World War II.
These are nations with regions that have never heard of the Gospel, church communities that hold underground services due to persecution and places that are continually struggling due to the aftermath of war. As we live and serve with the local Christians, the outreach will encourage students to learn about the heart of God and challenge students on living a life following Christ.

Countries we have visited

Vietnam, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Taiwan, China, Philippines, Mongolia, Sakhalin, South Korea, Cambodia, India, Saipan, Tinian

COMMUNITY LIFE

Community abundant in Christ

Diverse people of different nations and backgrounds gathered to live as a family.
Though it may not always be an easy path, as we embrace and commit to each other, we come to experience the love and grace of God and the significance of the body of Christ.
It is our aspiration, that we are transformed and polished to live as followers of Christ through this path.

Eat Hard, Work Hard, Love Hard

Life changes and training take place at this time.
