Wondemenh Baye* – Ethiopia

Regional Director

Wonde grew up in a Christian family, but it wasn’t until late in high school that he decided to follow Jesus. Wonde met regional director, Moges Berassa in 2002. Moges invited Wonde to visit a Young Life club and he instantly loved it. He started volunteering in the same club, and joined staff for Young Life soon after. Today, Wonde serves as a regional director and is working towards developing Young Life in a new area of Addis Ababa. He oversees a total of six clubs in majority Muslim populations. Wonde loves that Young Life values the relational aspect of ministry because he knows that it takes that personal connection to really introduce kids to Jesus Christ.
