    We've got a group stationed about a block from where I live. They send kids out into the bush here in Alaska. However, other than knowing the family in charge are some good people, I can't tell you anything.

    I have seen YWAM-mers in several of the trips I have taken, but haven't looked into trips with them. I am sure if you contact the main organization, you can get leads into the trips.

    YWAM is not officially Charismatic I don't think, but they usually have a heavy concentration of Chaismatic workers, in case that makes a difference to you.

    haha.

    no i was just curious to see if anybody here has been on a ywam trip really.

    im planning to apply (for 2007) for the Beach2Bush Ywam Outreach based in Brisbane, Australia.

    and if anybody has been on ywam. then i wanted to see how they thought of it.

    but charismatic people liven the whole thing up. considering the word "enthusiasm" comes from something like "en theos" (sp?) which means "in God." and so if we are in God, and God in us. we will have enthusiasm.

    but i see alot of people with enthusiasm, but are false converts... stoney ground hearers. will be praying for them.
