Hi! I’m Daphne.

I am a full-time missionary with YWAM Paris Connect in France, serving since October 2025. I am originally from Washington State in the U.S., and God has called me to serve in Paris. I feel specifically called to France to disciple others. I love creating spaces where people can be transformed by God and then go on to serve others.

What is Youth With A Mission (YWAM)?

Youth With A Mission (YWAM) is an international, multicultural, interdenominational, and intergenerational Christian movement dedicated to serving Jesus throughout the world. YWAM operates in over 180 countries, with more than 30,000 full-time missionaries united in a common purpose: to know God and to make Him known. This mission is carried out through three main areas—evangelism, training, and mercy ministry.

YWAM ministries span many spheres of society, including ship-based medical care, performing arts teams, Bible training programs, business coaching, sports ministries, anti-trafficking work, and more.

YWAM Paris Connect (YPC), pioneered in October 2017, is a global community of missionaries aiming to transform cities by connecting this generation to their missional calling. We are passionate about seeing young people activated to boldly fulfill the Great Commission through vibrant worship and prayer, mission training, community service, mercy ministry, and sharing the Gospel.

Our community is dynamic, full of creative visionaries, and expectant for what God will do in the coming years. We aim to Activate Faith, Proclaim Jesus, and Transform Cities.

I believe God is moving powerfully in this city, across Europe, and around the world—and I would love for you to be part of it.

As a missionary serving with a non-profit like YWAM, I rely on God’s provision through the support of others. This creates an opportunity for you to partner with what God is doing here in France and across Europe through prayer and financial support.
