Outreach Ministries

YWAM Antigua has several ministry programs that we conduct on a weekly basis.

Every Monday night we host a worship service in English in Antigua. We have a time of contemporary worship, teaching, prayer and fellowship at our service that reaches out to the English speaking population of Antigua. Many of the people who attend are missionaries or students who have come to Antigua to learn English. The service provides a connecting point for people who are here short term or long term. When visiting teams are with us we always make their participation in the service an option for them. During our DTS our visiting teachers participate in the Worship service.

Each week at the base we host Kid's Club for the neighborhood children. Typically we have from 40-60 kids coming for a time of singing, stories, crafts and games. Many of the children are unchurched so this is a great opportunity to make an eternal impact on their lives. Visiting teams often will do several days of kids ministry at the base and it is always a special time for the children.

Every Saturday night we host "Soul Patrol" at the Central park in Antigua. This is a hang out place for people of all ages. Many are passing time, relaxing and are open to having a conversation about Christ. There are a mixture of Spanish speaking and English speaking people in the park which give everyone more opportunities to share their faith with someone who speaks their language. God always shows up and leads us to people in need and it is a blessing to be able to be available and used to bring God's love to people.

One night during the week we do a small feeding program for people who live on the streets of Antigua. Many are addicted to chemicals or have been abandoned for various reasons. We give them a hot meal and spend time talking with them as well as pray for them. These are the people that most people pass by yet they are equally loved by God and worthy of being treated with care and love.

On Sunday nights we have been holding a worship service for a group of homeless people who live by the market area of Antigua. Each of them has a story of how they got there but our goal is to get them out of there, free from addictions and working to meet their needs. We want Christ to take control of their lives and bring the changes that are needed to help them enjoy the life he intends for them to live. Please keep these outreaches in your prayers.
