About YWAM Colorado @ Cimarron
Youth with a Mission Colorado@Cimarron was founded in 1975 to make disciples of Christ and to send them out to disciple the world.
YWAM-Cimarron was carved out of 2,000 acres of virgin forest located at 8,600 feet and extending to 11,400 feet high in the Rocky Mountains. Cimarron is located between Gunnison and Montrose, Colorado, nestled in the Rocky Mountains.

As he leaned back in his bed and looked up, he saw what he called a "mental movie." He saw waves on a map. The waves turned into young people, going to every continent, sharing the good news about Jesus. "Was that really you, Lord?" he asked.
This radical idea, that young people could be missionaries, stayed with this young man, Loren Cunningham. Four years later, in 1960, he started an organization with that idea expressed even in its name: Youth With A Mission. Today, Youth With A Mission (YWAM) has grown into one of the world's largest Christian mission organizations. The story of how YWAM began and how it grew is a story of God's direction and God's grace in using ordinary people from countries all over the world.
