Equipping African Missionaries to Reach the Nations

Vision

"To see a movement of well-equipped African missionaries who are confident and resourced, taking their place in God’s global mission—impacting nations and transforming lives with the love of Christ."

My name is Shirley Nyasha, and I am from Zimbabwe. I serve with Youth With A Mission (YWAM) – Frontier Missions, investing in missions mobilisation, discipleship training, leadership development, and member care across Africa and beyond. My heart is to see African missionaries equipped, encouraged, and released to bring the Gospel to the least reached peoples of the world.

During this season, my ministry involves teaching, mentoring, coaching, and supporting missionaries and leaders serving on the frontlines. I teach in DTS (Discipleship Training Schools), SOFM (School of Frontier Missions), and GSODTS (God’s Story Oral Discipleship Training School), with a focus on topics such as missions, Biblical worldview, prayer and intercession, cross-cultural Gospel storytelling, and oral discipleship. I also help pioneer and strengthen GSODTS training in new locations across Africa, while walking alongside leaders and teams through encouragement, prayer, and member care.

Much of my ministry involves regular travel throughout Africa, often taking two-week ministry trips each month across multiple nations as opportunities arise. These trips allow me to equip missionaries, strengthen YWAM teams and leaders, participate in strategic leadership gatherings, and help expand training opportunities in emerging mission contexts. Many of the places I serve are unable to cover travel expenses or honorariums, yet these opportunities are vital for mobilizing African missionaries to reach the unreached.

To help sustain this growing ministry, I am building a team of investors who will partner with me monthly.  I am aiming to raising $3000/ month toward travel and ministry expenses.

Any contribution, whether ongoing or one-time, is deeply appreciated and makes a real difference.
