At first, she expected others would join quickly; however, that did not happen. Therefore she started working with local believers from various denominations and, at the same time, hosted YWAM outreach teams from all around the world<strong data-start=\"365\" data-end=\"506\">.<\/strong><span class=\"apple-converted-space\"><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/span>As a result, God steadily built a foundation. And you know, His ways are always perfect. The ground has been prepared, and this area is ready now to welcome YWAM Rotterdam.<\/p><\/div><div><p data-start=\"709\" data-end=\"894\">At this moment, we mainly focus on both training and evangelism. Our motto is simple yet powerful:<span class=\"apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><em data-start=\"796\" data-end=\"839\">\u201cImpacting our area one event at a time.\u201d<\/em><span class=\"apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>Moreover, everything we do flows out of this desire.<\/p><\/div><div><p data-start=\"896\" data-end=\"1234\">Never to forget: above all, God invites us into an intimate relationship with Him. This Devine relationship with our Creator is what transforms us. And when our lives are transformed, then transformation flows through us. Not only do you then receive His love, but also naturally are going to share it. So, loving Jesus is our first call.

I look forward to walking alongside you on this journey of faith, growth, and adventure!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<style id=\"loop-dynamic-543\">.e-loop-item-532 .elementor-element.elementor-element-397317b:not(.elementor-motion-effects-element-type-background), .e-loop-item-532 .elementor-element.elementor-element-397317b > .elementor-motion-effects-container > .elementor-motion-effects-layer{background-image:url(\"https:\/\/ywamrotterdam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/foto-Jonathan.jpg\");}<\/style>\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"loop-item\" data-elementor-id=\"543\" class=\"elementor elementor-543 swiper-slide e-loop-item e-loop-item-532 post-532 medewerkers type-medewerkers status-publish has-post-thumbnail hentry\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" data-custom-edit-handle=\"1\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c56a78a e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c56a78a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-397317b e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"397317b\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b90c9a elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"2b90c9a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b7c4294 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"b7c4294\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-68de75e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"68de75e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Meet Jonathan<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3c2b834 elementor-widget elementor-widget-theme-post-content\" data-id=\"3c2b834\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"theme-post-content.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Hi,<\/p>\n<p>I am Jonathan de Rooij. I was born and raised in Rotterdam, in the Netherlands. I have always loved Jesus but in my early twenties I wanted to see Him in a new, fresh way and was led to do my DTS in 2019 in Herrnhut, Germany. God really revealed His heart for me and healed me in many ways and He gave me the desire to also see that happen in others. After my DTS I came back to Herrnhut to stay there long term. I&#8217;ve worked with different schools, led worship, been part of the IT team and got married to my lovely wife last year.<\/p>\n<p>The past 2 years God has also given me a bigger love for my home town again and I am excited to pour into the area of Rotterdam! My desire is to see hearts healed, to worship in spirit and truth and to walk with people as we all grow in intimacy with our King and Friend!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<style id=\"loop-dynamic-543\">.e-loop-item-530 .elementor-element.elementor-element-397317b:not(.elementor-motion-effects-element-type-background), .e-loop-item-530 .elementor-element.elementor-element-397317b > .elementor-motion-effects-container > .elementor-motion-effects-layer{background-image:url(\"https:\/\/ywamrotterdam.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Foto-Hannah.jpg\");}<\/style>\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"loop-item\" data-elementor-id=\"543\" class=\"elementor elementor-543 swiper-slide e-loop-item e-loop-item-530 post-530 medewerkers type-medewerkers status-publish has-post-thumbnail hentry\" data-elementor-post-type=\"elementor_library\" role=\"group\" aria-roledescription=\"slide\" data-custom-edit-handle=\"1\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c56a78a e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c56a78a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-397317b e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"397317b\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b90c9a elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"2b90c9a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b7c4294 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"b7c4294\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-68de75e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"68de75e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Meet Hannah<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3c2b834 elementor-widget elementor-widget-theme-post-content\" data-id=\"3c2b834\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"theme-post-content.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>Hi,<\/p>\n<p>I am Hannah de Rooij.

I came back to Herrnhut to staff DTS and very quickly felt God ask me to commit long-term to this.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years as I walked with people one-on-one and led outreaches, I developed more of a heart for DTS and vision to see staff and students experience a healthy and transformative six months with God that would impact their whole life.

We seek to honor God with all that we do, equipping and mobilizing men and women of God to take roles of service and influence in every arena of society.\u00a0<\/p><p>(Deu 8:1-3; Deu 32:45-47; 2Ki 22:8; Psa 19:7-11; Luk 8:21; Joh 8:31-32; Php 4:8-9; 2Ti 3:16 17; Heb 4:12-13; Jam 4:17)<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/details>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<details id=\"e-n-accordion-item-1086\" class=\"e-n-accordion-item\" >\n\t\t\t\t<summary class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title\" data-accordion-index=\"7\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"e-n-accordion-item-1086\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-header'><h3 class=\"e-n-accordion-item-title-text\"> Do First, Then Teach <\/h3><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class='e-n-accordion-item-title-icon'>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-opened' ><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-chevron-up\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M240.971 130.524l194.343 194.343c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941l-22.667 22.667c-9.357 9.357-24.522 9.375-33.901.04L224 227.495 69.255 381.516c-9.379 9.335-24.544 9.317-33.901-.04l-22.667-22.667c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941L207.03 130.525c9.372-9.373 24.568-9.373 33.941-.001z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t<span class='e-closed'><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-chevron-down\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M207.029 381.476L12.686 187.132c-9.373-9.373-9.373-24.569 0-33.941l22.667-22.667c9.357-9.357 24.522-9.375 33.901-.04L224 284.505l154.745-154.021c9.379-9.335 24.544-9.317 33.901.04l22.667 22.667c9.373 9.373 9.373 24.569 0 33.941L240.971 381.476c-9.373 9.372-24.569 9.372-33.942 0z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t<\/span>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/summary>\n\t\t\t\t<div role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"e-n-accordion-item-1086\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5bf1525 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"5bf1525\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-44026e2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"44026e2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>YWAM is committed to doing first, then teaching.
