The job of a YMCA chaplain is somewhat unique. There are no real set hours or a specific list of daily responsibilities. Rather, the Chaplain is there to serve both the members and staff as a living demonstration of God’s love.
The US Mission Network is dedicated to helping Ys across America live out their Christian mission.

San Antonio Leads the Way
When you think of San Antonio, Texas, you probably think of people walking around in cowboy hats, the famous River Walk, the San Antonio Spurs basketball team, fantastic Tex-Mex food and, our course, the Alamo. It’s a vibrant, growing city that relishes its historic culture and diverse population.

We’re excited to share this fresh report from Scott Reall, Stephanie Gibson and the Restore Small Groups team. We’re grateful for their partnership with the USMN and their ongoing work to transform lives around the world. Here is Scott’s report.
Response from Yakima YMCA
Late last month our National Director, Larry Whittlesey, was able to squeeze in a trip to Yakima, Washington before heading to the Y-USA Program Expo. Here is the positive response we got back from Bob Romero, CEO of the Yakima YMCA.
New YMCAs Connecting with the Network
It’s exciting to see how God is growing the impact of the US Mission Network across the country as new YMCA’s learn about this collaborative effort. While connection with our movement is purely voluntary, we grateful for those associations that have welcomed our message and begun to implement a stronger Christian mission emphasis in their own local associations. Here are a couple of encouraging stories about some YMCAs that have recently connected with the US Mission Network.
I Have a Place For You
MOPS is an incredible ministry that helps connect young moms to share the journey of raising the next generation. Considering the number of young moms who walk through our doors every day, the YMCA is a perfect place to host these groups.
We're dedicated to preserving, nurturing, and advancing the Christian heritage and purpose of the YMCA across America.
