“I thank God for YWAM. I have found its radical approach to theology discipleship and its seeking to accomplish world mission nearer to my own and confirming and illuminating my own more than any other church or movement's contribution. YWAM's accomplishment in providing more younger missionaries in more countries of the world is magnificent and significant."
Roger Forster, Founder and Leader, Ichthus Christian Fellowship, England, UK

"Loren Cunningham has been one of the most adventuresome visionaries of our time. What he has accomplished staggers the imagination. God gave him a dream and he lived it out--very few of us do that. Wherever I go I seem to run into people who have been discipled into radical discipleship by YWAM. Those who have been a part of their program prove to be a great gift to churches around the world. Their spirituality, their ability to witness, and their commitment to take seriously the teachings of Christ have impacted Christendom. I can safely say that YWAM is one of the most important and effective movements in Christendom today."
Dr. Tony Campolo, Professor of Sociology, Eastern College, St. Davids, Pennsylvania

"Whenever I'm traveling and speaking internationally and meet high-committed, servant-oriented Christian leaders, I think to myself, 'Another YWAMer!' I'm rarely mistaken. I am so grateful for the work of YWAM and for the intensity with which you do it."
Bill Hybels, Senior Pastor, Willow Creek Community Church

"When God saw fit to place our ministry in Asia, we did not know who would be our companions in the gospel. We went in obedience to God and he gave us YWAM. It seemed that we were 'a lost tribe' to them and they loved and supported us in every way. Their Kingdom vision has forever blessed us."
Reverend Dr. Jon C. Shuler, General Secretary, New Anglican Missionary Society

"YWAM has made a tremendous impact over the years in challenging both young and old alike to make themselves available to Christ for service in worldwide missions. I remember when I first came in contact with YWAM in Nepal in 1973-76. In those days you were known as Dilaram House and you had a special ministry with world travelers. My wife and I were impressed with the dedication and the servant hearts of your workers. Over the years many of the children of our members have joined YWAM to work in various ministries around the world. Some of your short-term workers have joined us in the Bible translation task. We have counted it as a privilege to be partners with you in carrying out the Great Commission. We are praying that the Lord will continue to show us ways in which we can partner together in reaching the remaining unreached people groups of the world in the coming years."
Dick Hugoniot, President, Wycliffe Bible Translators International

"YWAM is a unique contribution to world mission. YWAM has been highly effective in attracting mission entrepreneurs, especially among young people, and mobilizing them for a wide range of important mission work. Sprawling, sometimes messy and very nimble, YWAM's entrepreneurial spirit is the envy of the larger, more structured missions. YWAM's dependence on the movement of the Spirit of God in directing its work is a witness to all of us."
Bryant Myers, Vice-President, World Vision

"YWAM has contributed significantly to the Kingdom through its diverse range of ministries. I have known many YWAM programs and missionaries and appreciate the significant contribution each has made to the growth of the Kingdom of God. I appreciate the significant contribution that you have made to helping the poor and needy."
Vinay Samuel, The Oxford Centre for Mission Studies, Oxford, England
