Welcome!

Welcome to YWAM - Ireland!

We’re a missional community of people from about 9 different nations and working in 3 different locations: urban Belfast and rural Closkelt in Northern Ireland, and urban Dublin in the Republic of Ireland.

Whether we are in the Shankill Road in Belfast, the beautiful countryside overlooking the Mourne Mountains in Closkelt, the streets of Burundi or Serbia, orphanages in Rwanda, schools in Lebanon, the check points in Bethlehem or townships in South Africa…we are simply trying to live out lives made up of “indiscriminate acts of kindness”, and hoping these small acts will start to change the world.
