Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans: Proverbs 16.3
Praise Points
Finishing 2017 strongly: A strong year for the mission with more events than ever supported by the volunteer team; numerous opportunities to share our faith and serve; many encouraging conversations had.
Jesus Surf Series anniversaries: Despite some tough surf conditions, the 25th Jesus Surf Classic (JSC) and 10th Jesus Longboard Classic were hugely successful, with the JSC oversubscribed. A real feeling of camaraderie and support for what we do from the mainstream surf community with many of the top surfers in Britain entering.
ISA World Longboard Surfing Games: Phil had a fantastic opportunity to serve as the England team manager in China. A real honour and privilege, with opportunity to share his faith and serve at the highest level possible.
10th Anniversary Malmesbury Abbey Skate: A really encouraging event, celebrating a key milestone. A fantastic volunteer team, no injuries and the opportunity to share the gospel with the local community and those travelling from afar.
Prayer Points
Spring events: For the amazing opportunities we have; for the right teams and for lives to be changed and seeds planted at events which include the English, Scottish and Welsh Surfing Championships.
For protection, provision and God’s blessing to surround the staff (Ali, David, Daren, Johnny and Phil) and the trustee team and their families.
CS International Gathering (23–28 Sep 2018): Now is a key time for building a large and talented team to deliver a landmark gathering in south-west France, leaving a legacy throughout Christian Surfers in Europe and beyond. Please pray for the right people to fill the key positions.
CSUK Leaders Gathering (16–18 March 2018): A key time for the leadership in the UK as approximately 40 leaders from around the country meet to pray, share fellowship, plan and share stories of what God has been doing.
