See “YWAM 50th Celebration in Mongolia.” The first base launched in Erdenet in 1998. Now, a little more than 10 years later, they have 5 bases and over 80 staff—most first generation believers. That means a new base has been launched at least every other year (although it would be interesting to plot out the distribution of new bases launched). YWAM spreads in a swarmish, viral fashion. Any time you want to understand how a swarm functions—find a nearby YWAM base, and take the base leader to lunch, and ask him (or her) all about the history of the base and how it functions.
