ABOUT
YWAM Les Cayes is an international and interdenominational Christian organization focused on transformationally discipling Haitians to go to the Nations, whilst serving with love, empowering integrity, and acquiring trade skills.

Through the Discipleship Training School God has called us to teach Haitians about the Word, His character and missions. Alongside this God has led us to provide job skill training so that Haitians come away from the DTS with the skills to step into missions spirituality and financially.
