Youth With A Mission – Bacolod City, Negros Occidental

Located on the outskirts of Bacolod City in Sitio Ramona, Barangay Mansilingan, YWAM Bacolod is a pioneering YWAM base in Negros Occidental. We are a small but growing community of staff and volunteers committed to knowing God and making Him known.

We are currently in a season of growth, with capacity for farming and a heart to expand in discipleship, youth ministry, children’s work, and community outreach. Our ministries include the Discipleship Training School (including a Family DTS), King’s Kids, feeding programs, school supply outreaches, and partnerships that bring hope and transformation to the people of Negros.

We speak Ilonggo, English, and Tagalog, and we welcome people of all ages who desire to follow Jesus and serve others.

YWAM Baguio (Baguio Training Center) was pioneered/founded in 1972.

It is the first permanent YWAM base in the Philippines and the location of Asia’s first Discipleship Training School (DTS).

• Early Focus: Ministry to students, a preschool, and outreach from Baguio into mountain areas (e.g., Ifugao, Benguet, Mountain Province) as well as other parts of the country. Indigenous churches were also planted in squatter communities and among tribal peoples.
• Context in YWAM Philippines: This was an early milestone after the first YWAM teams arrived in the Philippines around 1968. Baguio served as a foundational hub from which the broader national ministry expanded.

Current address: #1 Maryhills, Loakan Proper, Baguio City, 2600, Philippines (P.O. Box 229). It continues as an active training center focused on discipleship, evangelism, and missions

ABOUT US

It was a simple stopover at the bus terminal in Butuan on a trip from Surigao to Davao in May 2007 that set in motion a vision from God to pioneer a YWAM Base in Butuan in the heart of Nelson Malaque. After another visit in April 2009, God further impressed upon him that Butuan was indeed the city God was calling him and his family to.

our MISSION

YWAM Butuan is committed to partnering with the whole body of Christ through a variety of targeted, specialized ministries, including training and equipping leaders for effective ministry and reaching people throughout the world.

our VISION

YWAM Butuan aims to increasingly become a ministry that conducts international Christian training while serving and reaching people with the gospel throughout the world.

Over the decades, the base has focused on discipleship, evangelism, community outreach, children’s ministries (such as Vacation Bible Schools), worship, intercession, and short-term missions. It serves as a hub for training and sending workers, particularly reaching local youth and families in the bustling urban environment of northern Mindanao. Today, under leaders like Base Leader Victor and Blaine Palma, YWAM Carmen continues to embody YWAM’s global call “to know God and to make Him known” through practical mercy ministries, Bible teaching, and cross-cultural teams in the Philippines and beyond.

Welcome to YWAM Calbayog

We are Youth With A Mission in Calbayog City, Western Samar — a YWAM Philippines location on the western coast of Samar Island, looking out to the Samar Sea. Our heart is simple: to know God and to make Him known, among the Waray people of this port city and across the island.

• We live and work in Calbayog, a river-and-sea city that is home, harbour, marketplace and mission field all at once. Samar is one of the Philippines’ largest islands, and Calbayog is its most populous city — a place of fishing boats, barangays and a long history of faith.
• We belong to YWAM Philippines — nearly forty locations from Aparri to Mindanao, a family that began in Baguio in the early 1970s. We share that same vision: discipleship, evangelism and compassion, so this generation can know Jesus and make Him known.

Before YWAM Carmen–CDO was established, my wife, Fronie Pearl, and I had been serving with Youth With A Mission in Antipolo City for two years. It should be noted that Fronie and I served with YWAM Dagupan while we were still single. Fronie then went to work with YWAM Bukidnon for 2 years before going back to YWAM Dagupan after we got married before us launching to YWAM Antipolo City from 2017-2019.

It was during the latter part of our time there that the Lord began stirring my heart about returning to my own “Jerusalem.” One passage continually came to mind: “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” — Acts 1:8, NKJV

I began to see this passage not merely as a geographical progression in the book of Acts, but as a pattern for our own obedience to the Great Commission.

There was a Jerusalem that God was calling us to.
There was a Judea.
There was a Samaria.
And there were still the ends of the earth.

The Lord began placing a burden in my heart to return home and establish a ministry that would reach people locally while continuing to carry a vision for the nations.

At the same time, God was speaking powerfully to me through the life of Nehemiah.

Nehemiah heard that the walls of Jerusalem were broken down and its gates had been burned with fire. Instead of simply accepting the condition of the city, he allowed the need to become a burden before God.

He prayed. He fasted.
He sought the Lord.
And eventually, he arose and acted.

His words became deeply significant: “Come and let us build the wall of Jerusalem, that we may no longer be a reproach.” — Nehemiah 2:17, NKJV.  The picture of rebuilding the wall became part of what God was speaking to us.

We believed that God was calling us to participate in rebuilding lives—strengthening believers, discipling young people, preaching the Gospel, equipping workers, strengthening churches, and mobilizing Christians toward the Great Commission. These two biblical pictures began to converge: Acts 1:8 — reaching Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and the ends of the earth. Nehemiah — arising and rebuilding what had been broken down.

Out of that burden, the vision that would eventually become YWAM Carmen–CDO began to take shape.

In Palawan, many children grow up without access to education. Families long for restoration, prisoners hunger for redemption, and entire communities still wait to encounter the love of Jesus. These challenges are real but they are also opportunities to bring lasting change together.

For more than 30 years, YWAM Puerto Princesa has been training disciples, serving families, ministering in prisons, and reaching tribal communities with the gospel.

Now, we invite you to join us in this story.

YWAM Surigao was first established in June 1986, when an outreach team from YWAM Balut came to the area as part of a School of Primary Healthcare outreach.

Under the current leadership of Soriano and Mae, the base has grown into a vibrant community that hosts teams from all over the world and runs its own Discipleship Training Schools.
