We currently lead the Family Ministries at YWAM Chico. Family Ministries at YWAM Chico desires to Encourage, Equip & Empower Families. Our ministry encompasses staff families, student families, and families in Chico, in California, and internationally. We want to equip families to minister together, including their kids in decisions, in ministry, and in hearing the Holy Spirit. Our hope is to cultivate a hunger within all members of the family for the Word of God and the moving of the Spirit.
Family Ministries wants to cultivate a culture of adoptive spirit, where all are included and loved and accepted – there is room at the table for everyone. This involves creating a safe environment to speak into each other’s lives, always pointing each other to Jesus - “iron sharpens iron” relationship.
We also lead the Family Discipleship Training School. The whole family will learn topics such as: Hearing God’s Voice, The Father Heart of God, Spiritual Warfare, Holy Spirit, Identity, and others that will prepare you for missions as a family. You will have times of worship together as well as intercession, debrief, fun, and ministry opportunities. Whether you pray for someone, feed the hungry, play with the lonely, or share the gospel, at Family DTS you will learn the tools necessary to work together as a family.
We do none of this alone, but have a team that encourages us, prays for us, and supports us. We are so thankful for each member of our team - without you we are unable to do any of this!
