King’s Kids is a relationship-based movement within YWAM, composed of Christian volunteers who share a common purpose in ministry, values and relationships. We function in partnership with families, churches and other like-minded ministries. Our purpose is to lead the children, youth, and families of Russia into a proven knowledge of God, to bring Him joy and together make Him known.
