When Loren Cunningham (1935- ) traveled all the way from his home in California to remote villages in Africa, he was beginning to fulfill his longing to tell the whole world about God’s love. Loren had a vision of waves of young people splashing up on every continent to spread the gospel and help the poor. Convinced that he should lead youth overseas, Loren began Youth With a Mission (YWAM), and today thousands of young people have joined him in his mission to spread the gospel throughout the world.
