Kerygma is part of the international, inter-confessional missions movement ‘Youth With A Mission’. Youth With A Mission is a global movement of Christians from many cultures, age groups, and Christian traditions, dedicated to serving Jesus throughout the world. Also known as YWAM (pronounced “WHY wham”), we unite in a common purpose to know God and to make Him known.

Back when we began in 1960, our main focus was to get youth involved in missions. Today, we still focus on youth, and we also involve people aged 8 to 80. We currently work in more than 1,100 locations in over 180 countries, with a staff of over 18,000. One of the joys of participating in YWAM is to work with people from many nations.

YWAM’s staff (known as “YWAMers”) come from over 130 countries, including places like Indonesia, Nepal, Mozambique, and Colombia.

"I deeply respect and am grateful for the ministry of Kerygma in South Asia. God has used it to build bridges of love and unity across very diverse expressions of the Body of Christ."

Steve Cochrane‘Neighbors’, YWAM

“Kerygma is one of the cutting-edge ministries, equipping Catholics to take their place in world missions. It is a blessing not only to the Catholic Church but to other expressions of the Christian faith as Kerygma facilitates unity within the Body of Christ. I highly recommend Kerygma for anyone who wants to grow in their personal faith, as well as receive God's heart and vision for a hurting world."

Mac CarpenterCollege of Counseling & Health Care, University of the Nations, YWAM

“Kerygma is to proclaim, announce or preach the good news to the poor, the blind and the captive. To fulfil a Commission so great takes courage, conviction and reconciliation. It will take all of us joining together with Catholics and other denominations worldwide as the body of Christ to fulfill the challenge on our lives.”

Aleck CartwrightCollege of Communications, University of the Nations, YWAM.

"We live in a delightful time when old boundaries between confessions and denominations are no longer hindering true Koinonia. ‘Kerygma’ have made a strong contribution in the creation of wider and deeper fellowship amongst all who confess the Name of Jesus"

Lynn GreenFounders Circle, YWAM

“Kerygma is a bridge that helps believers from Catholic and other Christian churches who truly love Jesus and want to be his disciples, to walk in relational unity. Kerygma helps us to focus on the essentials of the faith that unite us, to understand our differences and to work together for God's Kingdom while keeping true to the Word of God.”

Tim SvobodaYWAM Int’l Cities Coordinator

“I have observed Kerygma for many years and have been impressed with their capacity to bring understanding of the Catholic faith to the Protestant world. While at the same time engaging with Catholic lay people to see them trained and mobilized - both in developing their personal faith as well as engaging with effective short and long term missions. I highly recommend their ministry.”
