Today is Americas Day so we were treated to all kinds of exotic candy and exposed to the vast array of Latin American unreached surfing nations, while our Brazilian sisters sang a song, flags all flying.
Tim Meyers took us deeper. It’s not enough just to “be” with the presence of God, we also need to do something. He challenged us with the parable of the servants from Matthew 25:
- God has invested in you
- God is not fair and gifts us differently
- God has given us all we need to be successful, so stop comparing yourself with others & get on with it.
Our small groups are working well and it helps to check in each day with what we are learning. Good honest stuff. More strategy workshops and more challenges. We could debate for days!
Sickness continues to strike down people and prayer team in full swing. Gill Davis has barely been seen. The swell has reached 4-6’ and it’s all go to the Bukit. Some 40 of us descend on a quiet closeout that lives up to it’s name but all manage to enjoy. It’s bizarre to see a conservative Hindu ceremony in the midst of a liberal tourist spot.
Another great worship session. Our Indonesian band admits they didn’t think it possible a group of surfers would engage in worship and are amazed at the intensity. Sergio engages the Peruvian guys & also fire cracker Nacho from Argentina. So much passion.
Cal let’s us hear from Alvaro Marvez our Costa Rican brother, entering new era of a movement. Sergio is our CS speaker and we are challenged to believe God wants MORE for us than we can imagine. His story of the Surfers Bible and Surf House testify to this.
We also got late news the CSUS National Director Dean Plumlee has had a baby girl! Go Amy!
