Staffing At YWAM Azua
In accordance with “Youth With A Mission” standards, in order to staff at a YWAM base location full time you must have completed a “Discipleship Training School (DTS)” at any of the school locations around the world. We do ask for those seeking to staff full time to have a commitment for at least 2 years.
However, an individual may staff as a volunteer for up to 6 months without having done the DTS. To learn more about DTS please visit our Discipleship Training School page.
Here at YWAM Azua we provide housing, food and some transportation for our staff. As such we have what is called “Staff Fees” which cover the costs of living and go towards the base utilities. The cost of this is $250 USD per month per person. This is the same for those volunteering short term.
Our base has a community living lifestyle; meaning just as you do chores and cook in your family home, here you also contribute. This may be cooking, cleaning, landscaping, maintenance, leading worship or intercession, or any other duty that needs done to maintain our community location and lifestyle. These duties are many and we are happy to discuss your preferences with you should you choose to come.
In addition, all staff are expected to become involved in ministry to some degree. Be it participating in our regular activities or opening and leading us into a new ministry that is on your heart.
There are many responsibilities and roles that go into the functioning of our base. These responsibilities go beyond the shared work duties and ministry activities. The following list are the departments that we have. At times we are simply seeking help within them and at others we are seeking people to run the department.
- Kitchen
- Hospitality
- Maintenance
- Landscaping
- Construction
- Media
- Accounting
- Schools (DTS)
- Ministry Outreach (Preferably Spanish speakers)
