School of Worship & Prayer
REND THE HEAVENS
PURSUE GOD'S PRESENCE.
Gain a heart for intimacy with God, desire to be in His presence and pursue Him through worship and prayer. This is what YWAM’s School of Worship & Prayer is all about. SWAP is a second level YWAM school, which means the only prerequisite for the course is completing a Discipleship Training School.
WHAT IS SWAP?
The School of Worship & Prayer (SWAP) functions as a 12-week “live-learn” internship with an intensive focus on worship and prayer. This YWAM school has a uniquely tailored schedule that will help you build effective habits of prayer and worship into your life. During the course you will be immersed in environments of worship & prayer.
GROW YOUR PRAYER LIFE.
The School of Worship & Prayer is a second level YWAM course with a 3-month Lecture Phase and an optional 2-month Outreach Phase. It is an internship designed to develop a lifestyle of WORSHIP & PRAYER in the lives of those involved.
SWAP is uniquely designed to create space for intimacy with God through prayer and worship. If you’re looking to go deeper in these areas, and take worship and prayer to your community or the nations, then this is the school for you.
TAKE WORSHIP TO THE NATIONS.
As a community, we desire to TRAIN, EQUIP, & RELEASE prayer and worship leaders to the nations. As a result, we value worship and prayer in our daily lives as a community and believe the Lord is raising up a generation through the School of Worship & Prayer that desires to worship Him in spirit and in truth.
The School of Worship & Prayer is a call to those who desire to pursue a lifestyle of more intensive, radical, and focused worship and prayer.
