Conference Report
-----------------------------------------------------------------
This year's National Conference at Hope Chapel was amazing! The
surf pumped (see surf photos here!)
[http://www.flickr.com/photos/28795126@N02/], Dave and Rennie
Garda challenged and trained us, Trey Brunson and crew led us
into the presence of God through worship and the fellowship gave
us a little taste of what heaven is going to be like.(see Group
Photos here!) [http://www.flickr.com/photos/28795126@N02/].
God is moving through Christian Surfers and it was amazing to
hear the stories of God working in and through surfer's lives.
Plan to attend next year's conference, info coming!
ESA Easterns goes off!
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Once again CSUS had the privilege of serving at ESA Easterns. It
was a beautiful week with fun waves. Our primary task was
organizing and controlling the parking situation. We jumped in
and served in other ways as well. In God's planning, our
strategic placement in the parking area allowed us to greet,
speak with and even minister to individuals as they entered the
contest area. Our team consisted of participants in the contest
and CS members that had come simply as a missions trip. God
blessed us with a wonderful home for the team to stay in. Please
pray about joining the team next year.

Prep School Report
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Christian Surfers Prep School '09 kicked off the first weekend of
August. It was an extended weekend that everyone wishes could
have been longer! Sadly, the waves weren't top notch.
Nonetheless, there were some fun ones to be had—particularly on
Saturday.
Groms from up and down the East coast were able to show their
stuff on a clean little Outer Banks swell in picturesque blue
water. When the waves weren't working, the indoor skate park with
a smooth 'wavelike' bowl corner seemed to keep everyone stoked.
Even so, the highlight of the trip was surely the teaching and
fellowship. Both groms and leaders learned valuable and practical
ways to love their neighbors more like Jesus. Dean Plumlee (CS
National Director), lead the weekend's training sessions with the
help of Andy Butler. It was simple, it was practical, it was
genuine, it was Jesus. Check out the pics, CLICK HERE!

Talkin' Story: Surf Expo

Chapter in Focus: Galveston, Texas
-----------------------------------------------------------------
What's it like being a surfer from Texas? First, everyone
thinks you surf behind supertankers because there aren't any
waves in Texas, right? Well, 200 days a year waves are breaking
in Texas and 99% of Texas surfers have never surfed behind a
supertanker!
The Galveston CSUS chapter started in 03' in the wake of an
Outsiders movie showing. A unique leadership group made up of
multiple denominations and churches, they embody what God can do
in a group of Christian Surfers that operate in unity. Hurricane
Ike tested their mettle but through it they were able to love on
the other Texas residents and surfers. Check out more of what

US Open
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Hurley US Open of Surfing is the largest surfing contest in
the world, drawing crowds of 400,000 "+" people to the Huntington
Beach Pier July 22-26th. Christian Surfers, in partnership with
Walking on Water and through the support of Orange County
churches, seek to send a local mission team to reach out and see
this year's event impacted by Jesus.
We will do this in a number of ways: our first class booth,
product giveaways, thousands of copies of Walking on Water surf
movies, shaping bay staffed with top surfboard shapers and much
more. If you are interested in joining this missions team please
submit your application [http://www.christiansurfersnb.org/home/]

100 Partners
-----------------------------------------------------------------
This month Christian Surfers is launching 100 Partners, an
opportunity for you to actively join the movement that God has
begun in the surfing world. We seek to mobilize surfing
Christians to journey in the mission set before us. Our goal,
with your participation, is to see the over 3 million surfers in
the United States impacted by the love of Jesus. To learn more
about this life changing campaign, just email "100 Partners" to
info@christiansurfers.com [info@christiansurfers.com]
Chapter in Focus: Huntington Beach
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Huntington Beach: Surf City USA, center of the global surf
industry, home to the largest surf contest in the world, the US
Open. With a current crop of hungry up and comers including two
in the top 12 tier of the WQS ratings, Nate Yeomans and Brett
Simpson, Huntington Beach remains synonymous with surfing.
What you may not have heard is how God planted the chapter in
Huntington Beach four years ago. Without coordination or even
knowledge of the other, churches and individuals were raised up.
The end result was a chapter serving and reaching out to the surf
industry and local surfers alike. With outreaches to the ASR
trade shows and the US Open, CS Huntington Beach takes advantage
of its strategic location. For more info about CS Huntington
Beach or to get involved go to http://www.christiansurfershb.com/

US Open
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The Hurley US Open of Surfing is the largest surfing contest in
the world, drawing crowds of 400,000 "+" people to the Huntington
Beach Pier July 22-26th. Christian Surfers, in partnership with
Walking on Water and through the support of Orange County
churches, seek to send a local mission team to reach out and see
this year's event impacted by Jesus.
We will do this in a number of ways: our first class booth,
product giveaways, thousands of copies of Walking on Water surf
movies, shaping bay staffed with top surfboard shapers and much
more. If you are interested in joining this missions team please
submit your application [http://www.christiansurfersnb.org/home/]
or if you have any questions contact: Brian Edwards at
cshuntingtonbeach@gmail.com [cshuntingtonbeach@gmail.com ]
100 Partners
-----------------------------------------------------------------
This month Christian Surfers is launching 100 Partners, an
opportunity for you to actively join the movement that God has
begun in the surfing world. We seek to mobilize surfing
Christians to journey in the mission set before us. Our goal,
with your participation, is to see the over 3 million surfers in
the United States impacted by the love of Jesus. To learn more
about this life changing campaign, just email "100 Partners" to
info@christiansurfers.com [info@christiansurfers.com]
Chapter in Focus: Huntington Beach
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Huntington Beach: Surf City USA, center of the global surf
industry, home to the largest surf contest in the world, the US
Open. With a current crop of hungry up and comers including two
in the top 12 tier of the WQS ratings, Nate Yeomans and Brett
Simpson, Huntington Beach remains synonymous with surfing.
What you may not have heard is how God planted the chapter in
Huntington Beach four years ago. Without coordination or even
knowledge of the other, churches and individuals were raised up.
The end result was a chapter serving and reaching out to the surf
industry and local surfers alike. With outreaches to the ASR
trade shows and the US Open, CS Huntington Beach takes advantage
of its strategic location. For more info about CS Huntington
Beach or to get involved go to http://www.christiansurfershb.com/

Letter from the National Director
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I spent the last six days with Nic Mclean (creator of Noah's Arc
- the surf video). I was thinking about how God gave Nic a
passion to make surf videos. Through his obedience and the
obedience of many others, Noah's Arc was created. Through the
obedience of the people at Walking on Water the video was brought
to the world. Through the obedience of CS chapters and churches
the video toured the world. Through the obedience of CS members
people were loved on and invited to attend showings of the movie
and tens of thousands of people met Jesus. Two things struck me
- 1. the strategic planning of God and 2. the obedience of the
saints. Through that everyone wins - people find joy and God
gets glory. So, where has God strategically placed you today and
are you obeying? Remember through obedience you find joy and God
gets glory!
Chapter in Focus: Manasquan
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Cold barrels, hardcore surfers, Dean Randazzo and Casino Pier all
come to mind when thinking of Jersey. The Manasquan chapter has
been around now for 5 years plus and is currently headed up by an
on-fire Brazilian, Nestor Wagner. Made up of mostly older folks
they have a unique summer outreach which consists of FREE!!! surf
lessons and loving on people. Their approach to following Christ
is as committed as surfing through winter water temps in the high
30's. CLICK HERE [http://www.christiansurfers.com] to get to

Sometimes I find that I get very focused on the the small dot in
front of me and miss the bigger picture. Sometimes I forget that
Jesus said, HE would build HIS church and that nothing would stop
it. HE went on to say that I'm simply to "remain" in HIM. It's
not my job to draw the lost but merely to love them and share the
Good News with them. Sometimes my days don't go so well and I
think, "is Christian Surfers doing enough or doing anything for
that matter?"
This week I was working on the praise reports from 2008. To me,
those numbers represent faces and stories, opportunities and the
"brick and mortar" of God glorifying Himself and man enjoying it.
I was blessed as I added up simply one catagory - outreaches and
chapter meetings. These are event where CSUS members
intentionally love on people and truth goes forth. In 2008 this
scenario occured 1,369 times all over the United States. Wow!
God is building HIS Kingdom. I'm just glad I get be a part of
it.

Letter from the National Director
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Due to record donations in 2008 Christian Surfers has decided,
with very little prayer, to begin construction on a new retreat
center. This facility will house both the National Office and an
Outreach/Discipleship facility. The central component will be a
new wave pool. We have already opened talks with the ASP about
holding a WCT event here in the near future. Phase one has gone
beautifully (the pool is nearly finished) and phase two is
scheduled to begin this month (the parking garage). We continue
to purchase land for future expansion (as land prices are
excellent right now in central Alabama where the facility is
located). Photos and stories will follow soon. You may donate
to this project thru the CS web site
[http://christiansurfers.com]. If you have any questions please

Barrels in the middle of the OC, Newps has been and remains the

reputation for being the global center of "the industry", Newport
is where they live and come to surf.
CS Newport thrives on a philosphy of truly surrendered surfing,
at surf days some of their members don't even bring boards so
that they can hang at the tent and share their faith in Jesus
Christ! The fruit of their labor is seen in many testimonies of
surfers coming to know Jesus on the sand. CLICK HERE to read

Chapter in Focus: Sebastian Inlet
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Why do so many of the best surfers in the world seem to come
from the East Coast and in particular from Florida? Answer:
Sebastian Inlet.
In this month's Chapter in Focus we are interviewing CS
Sebastian Inlet's own Tripp Hernandez. CSSI draws members from
Melbourne Beach, Vero Beach as well as Ft. Pierce. They also
have a singular passion for evangelism and outreach which results
in them helping out at the many, many contests that come through
Sebastian Inlet. Click here [http://www.christiansurfers.com] to
read more.
Action Sports Retailers San Diego
-----------------------------------------------------------------
At ASR this year we decided to shift focus from what the industry
could do for us to what we could do for the industry. January's
show launched this new approach. Starting each day with a "booth
to booth" coffee service, it allowed us to make new friends and
get reacquainted with others. Teams also walked the show silently
praying for people, and from our booth we passed out evangelical
surf DVD's, information about and how to join CSUS.
The most impact came as we offered to help exhibitors move out of
their booth spaces. People seeing us in yellow shirts at work,
started calling from all areas for help. What a blessing for the
35+ volunteers to be used by God to help people and to
demonstrate the love of Jesus!
If you would like to get involved in a relevant way and make a
difference at ASR (West Coast) or Surf Expo (East Coast) please
contact us at info@christiansurfers.com.

Chapter in Focus: Sebastian Inlet
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Why do so many of the best surfers in the world seem to come
from the East Coast and in particular from Florida? Answer:
Sebastian Inlet.
In this month's Chapter in Focus we are interviewing CS
Sebastian Inlet's own Tripp Hernandez. CSSI draws members from
Melbourne Beach, Vero Beach as well as Ft. Pierce. They also
have a singular passion for evangelism and outreach which results
in them helping out at the many, many contests that come through
Sebastian Inlet. Click here [http://www.christiansurfers.com] to

Action Sports Retailers San Diego
-----------------------------------------------------------------
At ASR this year we decided to shift focus from what the industry
could do for us to what we could do for the industry. January's
show launched this new approach. Starting each day with a "booth
to booth" coffee service, it allowed us to make new friends and
get reacquainted with others. Teams also walked the show silently
praying for people, and from our booth we passed out evangelical
surf DVD's, information about and how to join CSUS.
The most impact came as we offered to help exhibitors move out of
their booth spaces. People seeing us in yellow shirts at work,
started calling from all areas for help. What a blessing for the
35+ volunteers to be used by God to help people and to
demonstrate the love of Jesus!
If you would like to get involved in a relevant way and make a
difference at ASR (West Coast) or Surf Expo (East Coast) please
contact us at info@christiansurfers.com.

Chapter in Focus: Santa Barbara
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Santa Barbara has a lot of history, it is the first CSUS chapter
started, way back in 1984! Matt Coleman has been the chapter
director now for three years and was a grom in the original
chapter. His passion to serve comes from seeing himself in the
young surfers, where he came from, the importance that CS role
models played in his own life and a desire to pass on that
heritage of serving Jesus in love.
SB is known currently for picking kids with leadership potential,
grooming and discipling them to have an impact for Christ in the
influential SB surf scene. Full of frothing groms between the
ages of 12-17, trips like their annual Jalama campout are always
a lot of fun! Check out their blog at
christiansurferssb.blogspot.com/

every day with homemade cinammon rolls, French toast and chili.
The Praise Report was that CSSI was able to serve the competitors
and spectators throughout the event with great appreciation. We
had over 30 people sign up for the email list, sold a dozen CS
tees and passed out over 40 Noah's Arc DVD's. We also had some

Report from Surf EXPO
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Surf EXPO may have been the best tradeshow to date. As always we
had many meaningful conversations with thousands of individuals
at the show, but the highlight was our new service opportunity.
We printed up some very noticeable florescent color shirts and
told the different exhibitors that the individuals wearing them
were at the show to help. In love we were able to assist many
different companies in breaking down their booths.
CSUS was also able to give away 500 evangelistic DVD's, 450
Channel magazines as well as hundreds of stickers and brochures.
The last day of the show we had the opportunity to worship with
Vero Beach Calvary Chapel in an early morning service. These same
things will be taking place in San Diego at the ASR Show.
