A Lifetime of Transformation.

What would it look like?

The YES Experience follows a structure and rhythm very similar to a DTS. Throughout the month, you’ll enjoy lectures led by various speakers, each bringing fresh insights on different topics. You’ll also join in with base duties and service opportunities, as well as connect in small groups and one-on-ones to share your journey together.

On weekends, we’ll head out to explore and experience the best our local area has to offer. It’s a full, vibrant, “taste and see” adventure—designed to give you a true glimpse of DTS life
