Mission To Europe

Right after the war broke out in the Ukraine, we were able to minister to missionaries from all around the world based in Europe for such a time as this.

We worked in 8 countries and ministered at 15 Youth With A Mission campuses, many of whom are helping refugees who were pouring out of the Ukraine into all of Europe.

For Such A Time As This…

102 One-on-ones with YWAM missionaries who were exhausted
27 Campus directors coached one-on-one, some in crisis management
6 3-day workshops for missionaries who wanted to stay but didn’t know how
95 Leaders trained in sustainability on how to minister for the long-term
77 Total days in Africa & Europe mentoring, teaching or driving every single day
23 beds slept in, some bunk beds and precarious sleeping situations
6,268 Kilometers driven in our little rent-a-car. Day off = driving for 8 hours!
96 Hours of driving – We must love each other a lot to be together 24-7 Ha Ha

We trained missionaries, Christian leaders, and relief workers throughout Cameroon, Africa and Europe on how to be healthy, effective and sustainable for the long-term on the mission field. So many were on the edge of giving up when we arrived but had a true renewed hope and pep in their step as we drove away!
At Hurlach Castle, Germany we saw YWAM taking supplies to the Ukrainian border and bringing back refugees in those same vans. They are filling the castle with refugees and finding them permanent homes.
We gave the campus director and operations staff a crash course on how to run a mission base during a crisis situation. The executive leaders wanted to meet with us which resulted in a powerful time of encouragement and prayer. They asked us to please return so we have been looking into when we can get to them.
We trained missionaries from Africa, South America and more who are running a campus in France. This country only has 1.6% evangelical Christians as compared to 25% in the USA. I love how people are coming from the nations where missionaries were once sent in the 1800’s back to Europe’s post-christian culture to reintroduce them to Jesus. Most churches in Europe are closed or turned into a restaurant or gym. Many times you would have to drive hours to find one church with 20 people in it. It has been so many generations now from the time people attended church, and had a personal relationship with Jesus, that even the grandparents did not grow up in church.
After training the team of missionaries, one leader said, “I was moved by their servant hearts and their humility as they seem to have lived 100 lives and 1002 experiences! I really felt their burning desire to pass on as much knowledge as possible to help us as much as possible. Thank you for sending the Galloways to help us!”
At another campus, we trained and encouraged 20 missionaries who had been working in Mongolia, French speaking African nations, and South America. They were following God’s call to pioneer a new missions outpost. We translated all of our teaching from English to French to Spanish so everyone could understand.
In German speaking Austria we led a three-day intensive for the YWAM missionaries, mentored the campus directors and poured into young adults in the community. Non-English speaking countries have little Christian training/books/resources in their language to prepare them. They ate it up!
They wrote, “We only had 4 days with Mombo and Juan, but it feels like we had months together. They are great communicators and poured so much love and passion into our team. They really live out what they teach and one can see that they deeply care for the wellbeing of our YWAM staff.”
At YWAM Amsterdam we learned of all their work rescuing women out of sex trafficking in the red light district. We had so much fun training a group out of this very large campus in how to build a missions partnership team for life. These leaders are changing the city!
At YWAM Paris, in a Muslim ghetto filled with refugees, we were busy teaching in their urban warehouse doing trainings morning, afternoon and night. Everyone we trained was from all over the world. We were truly empowering leaders from every nation to go to every nation.
THANK YOU!
On behalf of Mombo and I and the people of Europe, we thank you for partnering with us so that we might bring the light of the gospel to the nations. This was a powerful trip and so many lives were touched because you gave! We appreciate you and are blessed to partner together! We couldn’t do this without you!
