Discipleship Training School (DTS) is designed to help you understand God more deeply, live more like Jesus and identify your unique gifts and purpose to use in missions. DTS is an intensive, residential training course which begins with an 12 week lecture phase, followed by an 8-12 week intercultural outreach, normally in another nation. DTS emphasizes cross-cultural exposure and global awareness, preparing students to answer the call to "Go into all the world and make disciples of all nations" Matthew 28:19.

This school dives deep into more intimacy with God and fearless obedience to participate with God in His Mission. During the school you will engage with outreach ministries in the rural communities of Guanacaste. You will be challenged to find your part and place in God's big plan and equipped to do so. In a classic YWAM way, we will pray as a group and ask God where He wants to send us on outreach... it could be anywhere in the world. During the outreach we will get a hands-on intercultural missions experience. We are determined to learn to hear God's voice and act in obedience to it. The DTS is bilingual (English and Spanish).
