Here we are, at the end of YWAM’s 50th anniversary year. If you’ve been following the global celebration reports on www.ywam50.com I’m sure that, like me, you are hoping Loren and Darlene Cunningham have plans for a nice, quiet Christmas at home!
As we prepare to publish this issue, thousands of YWAMers are gathering at the University of the Nations campus in Kona, Hawaii, for the final event of our anniversary celebrations. This will be followed by the annual meeting of YWAM’s Global Leadership Team (GLT), who ask for your prayers as they gather to address some significant issues regarding YWAM’s future.
Written and video reports from the GLT will be available each day of the meeting at YWAM’s brand new staff resource website : www.ywamlife.com. This website complements www.ywam.org , but is aimed at YWAM staff, for the purpose of helping them be more effective in ministry. Here, you will find YWAM family news, information about YWAM events and special training as well as a variety of resources you need, and some you didn’t know you needed! Make sure you take a look at it.
Finally, the IY would like to thank all the talented writers, photographers, designers, models, computer geeks and “ideas people” who have contributed to the IY this year – you guys rock!
And, to our readers : wherever you are, and in whatever way you are remembering the birth of our Saviour – may you be blessed this Christmas with a renewed sense of wonder at His love for the whole world!
