Come and live in our faith-filled international multigenerational missionary community:

And then take the gospel internationally to those who are still unreached!
Each DTS is designed to do five things:
GATHER and CHALLENGE
you to worship, listen to and obey God through evangelism, intercession and acts of compassion.
INSPIRE and CULTIVATE
growth in your relationship with God and Christ-like character.
SHARPEN
your ability to relate to, learn from and work with people.
EQUIP
you to serve God’s purposes, in or outside of YWAM.
IMPART
the vision and foundational values of YWAM and share opportunities for service.
Most mornings during the lecture phase will be spent in the classroom, but with daily prayer and worship and opportunities for weekly evangelism, our DTS will not simply fill your mind with wisdom, it will touch your heart with revelation and empower you to quickly put into practice the things that you learn.
Examples of teaching topics include the person and work of Jesus, hearing God's voice, worship and prayer, evangelism and the Holy Spirit. Many of the members of the YWAM Cambridge team are excellent and inspirational teachers in their own right, but we also invite local ministers and YWAMers from further afield to come and teach.
Following in the footsteps of the great missionary pioneers, the Cambridge Seven, we love sharing the Good News all around the world. Each DTS spends two months overseas on outreach. International outreach gives you the opportunity to experience a new culture, the strength and support of being on a team and the opportunity to minister to others in a wide variety of situations in love. On outreach you could find yourself preaching and performing dramatic sketches of the gospel in local churches, giving Bibles out on the streets, praying for the sick in a government hospital, or teaching in schools — whatever God calls us to do, we will do!

If you are from within the EU, please make sure you have a reciprocal health form or health insurance. If you are outside the EU, please ensure you have health insurance with repatriation included to cover your stay in the UK.
The name ‘Revival & Reformation’ comes from our desire to press into the heart of God to see him raise up men and women of a Revival heart to bring Reformation to our world. In partnership with Cambridge House of Prayer, our DTSs spend a couple of hours each day in worship and intercession.
The name also refers to the incredible Christian heritage which Cambridge has, and specifically the student Revival and missionary movement triggered by the Cambridge Seven in the late 19th Century and the 16th Century Reformation that began with a group gathering in a Cambridge pub to discuss Luther’s controversial rediscovery of the simple gospel.
You could say that what we want our DTSs to catalyse a Revival of Cambridge’s Reformation-al calling and anointing.
