Discipleship Training School

A Discipleship training school, also known as DTS seeks to bring you into a more intimate relationship with God. It also gives you an opportunity to discover your passions and your part in God’s purposes for the world. It is for those who long to follow Jesus in new ways with a different perspective.

The course is a full-time program and lasts for five or six months. It consists of two parts: lecture phase and outreach phase. In the lecture phase, you will learn more about God and His world. You’ll learn not only from lectures but also from community living and practical training.

The outreach phase focuses on applying what you learned in the classroom through an intense, cross-cultural experience.

Lecture Phase

This is the first part of the training. Here you get to know and experience God trough different topics every week and each week we have different speakers from all over the world.

A lecture phase also includes worship, intercession, prayer, work duties, small groups and much more!

Outreach Phase

In the outreach phase our goal is to make God known to the people outside our base, in our community, to the islands, the village and other parts of the Philippines and the world.

With the things you learned in the lecture phase you will be able to share God`s Word and love to the people trough your testimony, performing arts and other ways.

YWAM Cebu focus mostly to reach out to the people in the Philippines and indo- China for our outreaches, but we always pray and let the Holy Spirit lead us where to go!



The DTS has two different prices making the school accessible to all those who wish to attend.

For foreigners, the school fee is $1,500. This covers the food, accommodation and other expenses during the lecture phase, except for travel expenses for the midterm outreach. This charge does not cover expenses during the outreach phase.

For those from the Philippines and other developing nations, the school fee is Php 30,000. This covers the food, accommodation and other expenses during the lecture phase, except for travel expenses for the midterm outreach. This charge does not cover expenses during the outreach phase.

The fee for the outreach can change from year to year, because it depends on where we will go. So the outreach fee here will be set during the lecture phase.
