A team committed to children

Shaping lives is a Christian ministry to children at risk in Bogotá, Colombia, under the umbrella of Youth With A Mission International. We exist to honour God and share His love through the regeneration of children in irregular and high-risk situations, their families and future generations.

Our ministries

The Shaping lives team has created spaces that help children to know the gospel of Christ through activities designed especially for them, we have a team of volunteers and trained staff.

The jungle

  • A unique tool that provides hours of recreational, challenging and enjoyable fun for children and adolescents in the neighbourhood. The inhabitants of this sector have no safe places to play and enjoy their childhood. They live in or near the tolerance zone and many live with the whole family in tenements in a rented room.

Friends Club

  • Located in the south of Bogotá, in Altos de Cazucá, the ‘Amigos’ Club reaches out with the Gospel to very needy children and adolescents living in one of the many suburbs of Bogotá.

“Unless the LORD build the house, they labour in vain that build it: unless the LORD keep the city, the watchmen watch in vain.”

Psalms 127:1
