Bob and Kristy Swank
Leaders, YWAM Salt Lake City
We are grateful Jesus got ahold of our lives when we were in our teenage years and early 20s. We want others to experience His life changing love and power and be discipled in His ways. Kristy joined YWAM in 1984 and Bob in 1986. We have seen God reveal Himself through us as we show hospitality and disciple others. We are called to equip and mobilize the Body of Christ to reach the unreached and disciple a generation of missionaries to be intimate with Jesus, know who they are in Christ, and live lives of obedience to Him!
