We need help
The first applications are already coming in, but we need help with the promotion of this very special opportunity. We would like to see 80 to 100 students come to participate in this training program.
Do you know any young people who would love to come to Rio for 8 months and do a DTS and C@R school? Maybe you have someone in your family or church who would love to take a gap year, and come to Rio de Janeiro?
We have a website with all the information and application forms: http://jlukasse.wix.com/ywam-rio-2016, but you can also tell them to contact us through our Facebook – Johan Jeannette Lukasse, or email - johan@jocum.org.br Please could you help us to find the right participants?
Miracle: Free housing for 80 people in Rio de Janeiro.
The planning for this program started already two years ago, but we were struggling to find an adequate location for the training. We wanted a place close to the city center, close to the favela Borel (where YWAM runs a big successful community center), and still reasonably close to the beach! But, where could we find such a place during the Olympic year?
Last month one of the missionaries from YWAM reported a miracle: A big church offered the use of an empty building next to the church. It has a big auditorium, a kitchen, and various rooms that can serve as dorms. It is exactly what we were looking for, and only 20 minutes by metro train to the beach. All we have to pay for is the cost of water and electricity. This will help immensely to keep the costs of the program low. Isn´t this great?
The price of "YWAM Rio 2016, eight months that will change your life", is now in Brazilian Reais (R$) :
• R$ 200.00 Registration Fee. (About US$65.00)
• R$ 6,000.00 Costs of both lecture phases of DTS and CER school, including room and board. (About US$1,920.00)
• R$ 1,000.00 basic expenses of food and transportation during the two months of evangelistic outreach. (About US$320.00)
Total R$ 7,200.00 (About US$2,300.00)
That means the total for the 8 months YWAM Rio 2016 program will cost only US$2.300,00
(Price calculated on 03-07-2015 with currency rate of RS1= US$0,32 The price may vary according to the currency rate.)
A visa application for Brazil can take a couple of months, so young people outside of Brazil need to quickly get in contact with us. (johan@jocum.org.br)
Please help us with the promotion of this great opportunity in Rio in 2016!
