Hope 2:7

Hope 2.7 is the refugee ministry of YWAM Boise. This name is born out of the promises of Haggai 2:7, "And I will shake all nations, so that the treasures of all nations shall come in, and I will fill this house with glory, says the Lord of hosts."


What our Ministry Looks like

We strategically invest in neighborhoods with a large population of refugees. During a typical week, you may see us playing soccer behind an apartment complex, having tea with a family from Ethiopia, celebrating a birthday with a Syrian family, showing our new Somalian friends some of the beautiful hiking trails in the Boise foothills, helping a Congolese family move into their new home, or heading to the mountains to fish with our neighbors from Afghanistan. Our goal is to build intentional relationships that lead to Spirit-led conversations about Jesus. We also partner with local organizations to welcome newly-arrived refugees, and disciple young people from refugee communities each week during our Tuesday and Thursday night Bible Studies.

 

Hope Internship Program

We offer full-time and part-time internships focused on development in leadership, discipleship, and mission.

  • Gain a better understanding of displaced people (and the missional opportunities that come with them). 

  • Identify your unique leadership gifts and how they can be used for God’s glory in ministry.

  • Grow through one-on-one mentorship and practical ministry experience.
