Photography DTS Lecture | YWAM San Diego Baja — YWAM San Diego/Baja

Campus Phase

Our DTS starts with a three-month Campus Phase where students discover more about who God is while surrounded by God's beauty in beautiful Baja California, Mexico, just south of San Diego.  The core of the DTS is to become equipped in knowing God and making him known. This comes through classes, personal devotions, times of prayer and worship, serving in our local communities, and being part of the YWAM community on campus. DTS tracks are designed to give you training in the passions that God has given you in addition to the core of the Disicpleship Training School. When you choose the Media DTS track, you will grow in your skills to use media and storytelling to communicate God’s story, advocate on behalf of others, and use social media as a tool for His kingdom!

The Media DTS track is for anyone with a passion or interest in photography and media, no matter your existing skill level. We can help provide the equipment you need to impact others with the love of Jesus through visual storytelling. Students live in a close-knit community with one another and encourage one another to grow in their walk with the Lord.  There is also time to meet in small groups, and the opportunity to be personally mentored, encouraged, and discipled by our YWAM staff.
