Chapter Fundraiser wrap
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I continue to
be amazed by God's grace and the awesome disciples I encounter as
part of the Christian Surfers ministry. Over the past few months,
Chapters have been diligently holding fundraising and outreach
events. Some Chapters used funds to send members to the National
Conference in California and others using donations to enhance
programs already in place in their community. Thank you,
volunteers for all the hard work and extra effort it takes to
organize and execute an event!! You guys are amazing!! So, just
to name a few…
• Virginia Beach: Spaghetti Dinner & Silent Auction $1,300
raised!
• Newport Beach: Spaghetti Dinner & Silent Auction $2,600 raised!
• Hampton: Spaghetti Dinner & Silent/Live Auctions $1,575 raised!
(Rob Schwartz auctioned off the rights to cut off his hair!
Photos coming soon!!)
I'm looking forward to the New Year! Many Chapters have already
expressed exciting ideas for fundraisers and outreach events.

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
Jay has to say HERE [http://www.christiansurfers.com].

The 2009 Hurley US Open of Surfing was the best contest
Huntington Beach has seen in years! The over 400,000 people who
attended experienced firsthand world class surfing, along with
the surf culture and lifestyle most dream about.
In the midst of this larger than life event, a small 10×10 booth
carried a message of hope for a culture that is longing for
meaning and purpose. Christian Surfers

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
