YWAM University of the Nations Workshop in September 2009

September 7 – 12, 2009 will see the next YWAM University of the Nations (UofN) workshop run in four different locations. The workshop will run in the Ukraine, Switzerland, Egypt and South Africa. The workshop is being targeted “For Such A Time As This” and is meant for every YWAMer to hear what God is saying to the mission for this season, to hang out with others and learn more about how to disciple nations.

The last time the University of the Nations Workshop was run in multiple locations using GENESIS was in 2001 when I lead the GENESIS team in Nairobi, Kenya. It was an amazing time of bringing the mission together in a way that had not been done before.

Recent controversy has been raised by a non-government group based out of London who believe that the Hakani Project, and the film produced by them, exaggerates the problem of intanticide among the tribal communities in Brazil.
