Mi’au sa Bula Sia Welcome to YWAM Lighthouse. We are happy to see you and would be glad for you to come visit us in Labasa in the friendly North. We are an International community passionately committed to the Great Commission; seeking God for new ways to make Jesus Christ known through evangelism, training and mercy ministries. Our primary focus is on youth, children, community and where the gospel is needed.
Bula! Welcome to the friendly north!
History
Since 2008, following a confirmation of vision during the 2007 Impact World Tour, YWAMfresh Labasa now seeks to still be a shining light into the communities of Labasa and Vanua Levu.
In 2007 Pitia Kidia felt need to pray for a building, Ken Mulligan felt there was to be a YWAM presence, Dobui & Wati Suva came to Labasa for employment but also for so much more. Seria Vinakadina, inspired by updates from the north, felt led by God to move to Labasa, in doing so YWAMfresh was established.
Present
YWAMfresh Labasa, though no longer in the building in the original vision, still continues to shine like a "Lighthouse" into the community.
Around 2013, following a look at values and vision, felt the need for a newer "fresh" look, hence the name change. Running DTSs in 2012, 2013 and 2015, BSN in 2015 the base has been discipling the youth of Fiji. This year a mini discipleship was run in August with another still to come.
Ministries
The focus of our ministries are on how we can shine light into the darkness, thus releasing God's light and purposes for Labasa, Venua Levu, Fiji and beyond.
We want to see young people actively shining His light in churches and schools, children filled with hope and life for the future and communities brought into restoration with God.
