so why a wigwamy ywamy thingymagig? WHAT IS A YWAM DTS!?
a Youth With A Mission Discipleship Training School is basically missionary training. 6 months learning more about god, worship, prayer the bible, and making god known. Each school is different and has a different focus. They are all over the world and i spent about a year or so looking at them all (well its planning, isnt it ;) it was last year my after my natural father phoned that just out of curiosity i looked at the one in madrid, i mean i wasnt going there right, i was just having a nosey i mean me - i was going somewhere exotic like tahiti, or the amazon, the rockies...but as i scanned down the list of things the school covered in topics and saw theri focus was mercy ministries in the third world (mercy ministries are any kind of work that helps the poor and needy) there more i knew this was the right place. The thought of spending 6 months here in madrid and getting to know my natural father was terrifying but very appealing, beyond normal complecations we had a language barrier that i had had 25 years to try and cross but not gone to near.
you see I traced my natural father when i was 16 (hes spanish) and have met hime 3 times, he phones every year on my birthday. It will be a scary 8 years since i last saw him, and his english matches my spanish (hey - they could communcate, and i wasnt planned!) so you can understand my nerves and anticipation about seeing him again, and meeting him alone. what if he doesnt want to know? what if its too hard to converse and its all too stressfull to persue?
we would soon see.
