Time flies and it has been a while since I wrote. I have been quite busy with the film school and other projects. We actually had our film school graduation just a week ago, with eight students graduating from six different countries!
One of our projects is to find a new place for the film ministry in Youth With a Mission, Medellin. The house we are renting is getting smaller and smaller every day, in proportion to the activities we do. So we went out and looked, and we actually think we have found a place! So much so that we have talked with the land owners and have started a fund-raising campaign. It is situated in the South of Medellin and has direct access to the city's integrated bus and tram system, but is still rural enough to have fresh air and calm surroundings.
This new place could accommodate several of YWAM's ministries in Medellin, such as the Counseling school ministries, the Missions school ministries (DTS), the Family ministries, the Values ministry and of course, the film and media ministry (Centrocom). See possible map below.
The whole idea with this place is to build ministries that can impact society from a Christian perspective, being a benefit and blessing to the city, the country of Colombia, and many other countries and cultures.
Would you like to be part? To buy this lot, we need around 390,000 US dollars. The whole lot is of 22,400 square meters, so we are now asking for people to support toward one or several square meters of $25 each. If 22,400 people support, the deal is done! It is easy to support, you can just use PayPal. You will find more information on this page.
This is how the land looks like (new buildings would be constructed):
And this is how the place could be designed:
