YWAM-VA Campus

Since 1982, YWAM Virginia has been helping youth and teens from around the world deepen their walk with God. In the classroom and especially on outreaches, students receive training that can truly change their lives. YWAM Virginia is a place where many discover God's call.

Our multi-cultural, multi-lingual campus offers different University of the Nations courses such as Discipleship Training School (IDS 701/702), English Language & Culture
(HIS 233), Principles in Child & Youth Ministries (EDU 209/210) & the School of Jewish Studies (CCM 336/337).

Our staff, volunteers and students also reach into
the city of Richmond and the world through our eight community ministries: AFRONetwork (reconciliation), Campus Ministry, Impact Teams (construction ministry), Jewish World Office, KKI (family ministry), NIKO wilderness challenge experiences, Richmond Ropes Challenge Course & Urban ministry (At-risk youth).

Our urban campus is not what you would expect to see just five minutes from the downtown business district & State Capitol building. Full of flowering dogwoods, huge oak trees & towering tulip poplars; our beautiful 12 acre campus provides the convenience of the city with the serenity of the countryside. (If you come out early enough you can see our two wild turkeys roaming the lawn!).

Why Richmond?

Founded at the falls of the James River, Richmond has played a pivotal role in the early history
of this nation. Less than 2 miles from our student campus, Patrick Henry declared his famous call to action, "give me liberty or give me death!" Richmond is a city of passion with a history full of nation shaping events.
