The city of Riga is a highly fluid and ever changing city. With Latvia's regained independence since the crumbling of the Soviet Union in 1991, and it's rebuilding and development as a nation, this is a significant juncture presently and for the future. Riga plays a key role in Latvia and as a regional centre, it is an extraordinary time to participate in seeing God's Kingdom more firmly established here in the city and witness transformation in the spheres of society.
YWAM Riga was pioneered in 2002, with a focus primarily on training and the Russian speaking community. In 2007, after our leaders returned to their home country, YWAM Jurmala, focused on music, merged with YWAM Riga. New leadership came on board, and as our staff grew, our vision expanded and diversified.
We welcome you to YWAM Riga.
