In 1984, David Graham went to a conference in Bolivia as a guest of Loren Cunningham’s, and little did David know that Loren would introduce him as the next base director of YWAM Montana-Lakeside. This came as a complete surprise to David, but in the end it turned out to be prophetic! David became the first base director of YWAM Montana-Lakeside, and then in the fall of 1984, David, Bob Fitz, and (Mr.) Gustafson traveled throughout Asia to do some recruiting for their first DTS, which then started in September of 1985. We had 47 students and 33 kids!
