The Discipleship Training School is a five month, hands-on Christian training program with a 12 week lecture phase followed by an 8 week outreach phase. The dts provides you with an opportunity to take five to six months away from the normal pressures and routine of life so you have time to focus entirely on Jesus. The program teaches you how to build an intimate relationship with God, develop personal character, and lead a lifestyle of expressing God's love to others.

The dts is also a great place to make new friends from around the world as you live and learn together in community. We emphasize global awareness while living in a rich, multi-cultural community where we all learn from one another. This cross-cultural environment creates a basis for an intimate and passionate relationship with God so you can boldly go and "make disciples of all nations" (Matthew 28:19). But dts is only the beginning. Once trained, you qualify to apply for many more opportunities with ywam including staff positions and other ywam training programs, as the DTS is required for those and considered to be the main entrance in YWAM. Pray about it. Maybe five months with us here in Fortaleza is part of God’s exciting plan for your life!
