WIKUS's JOURNEY
From the time Wikus did his YWAM Discipleship Training School (DTS) in 2009, he began with a Transformation Prayer Ministry (TPM) ministry in Potchefstroom. Since then hundreds of facilitators have been trained. In 2013 we started the YWAM base and led 7 DTS’s. As some of the outreaches focused on refugee camps we started with Operation Refugee Africaand today a Ywam base is standing in Dzaleka refugee camp.
Wikus then served a year on the YWAM International Refugee circle from which the season suddenly changed to the governance sphere. After a word from the Lord in Eswatini, he founded the Godly governance movement which ministers into governance.
Currently Wikus is working with the Centre of Advocacy, Law and Justice based in Harpenden, London. He is also focused on the Online Prophetic school and writing new curriculum for governance training called The School of Spiritual formation. He also mentoring people, does regular TPM sessions, studies recent global developments and writes books and opinion pieces for Ywam.
