We believe that this generation has an important role to play in seeing the gospel preached in every nation, tribe and language. Come get equipped and take part in what God is doing in Scotland and the Nations! During the Wild Scotland DTS, you will get to go deeper in your relationship with God, explore the wildness of Scotland and its revival history, and go to the unreached places to bring the good news of Jesus!
DTS LAYOUT
LECTURE PHASE
Lecture phase focusses on knowing God and what it means to be a disciple. You will get trained as a missionary, learn to hear God’s voice and discover God’s calling on your life. There will be weekly lectures where we delve into different topics. You will be part of a community of missionaries from around the world, joining our worship and prayer sets, family style meals and community hang outs. Each week there will be time for one-on-one discipleship, small groups, practical ministry, evangelism, fun and adventure.
Our DTS begins with 10-11 weeks of lectures. After outreach phase, we will spend a few weeks debriefing and discussing going home well.
WILD SCOTLAND TRACK
Throughout this DTS, you will get the chance to experience Scotland in all its wild beauty, while building up a strength for adventure that will carry you to the nations. Come expecting to hike your way through the highlands, wild swim in lochs, go through survival training in the wild and more.
You’ll also learn about Celtic Christianity and the rich history of revivals, so you can carry this Scottish fire into the nations!
OUTREACH PHASE
The goal of outreach is to make God known. It is the time where you take everything you learned in lecture phase and go into the nations to share Jesus with others. Three billion people don’t yet know Jesus. God is inviting you to partner with Him by going to the ends of the earth to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Our DTS includes a two-week midterm outreach during lecture phase and finishes with a 10-week outreach.

Why Seamill?
Seamill is nestled within a small Ayrshire village on the west coast of Scotland. Our base is ideally situated on a hill overlooking the Firth of Clyde and the stunning Isle of Arran. It is the perfect place to get quiet and seek the Lord.
The YWAM Seamill community is focused on the centrality of Jesus’ Presence in everything we do and every part of our lives. The base functions as a place for many to get away to be challenged, refreshed, and equipped, then sent out to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Come seek His presence with us in a beautiful part of the world He created!
