Our Story
YWAM Guinea-Bissau was established in 1990 by Brazilian missionaries. After talking to other mission agencies in the capital, including WEC, they heard that the least reached region of the country was the city of Gabu.
When they arrived in Gabu, they found favor in the eyes of the local leadership, who donated a plot of land where the base is still established today. The YWAM School soon began and then the clinic, both of which have been serving this community for decades, with thousands of lives impacted.
Over the years, we have started countless projects, several churches have been planted, hundreds of Guineans have been trained and encouraged to take their place in the divine narrative.
