News
On behalf of the staff and trustee team of Christian Surfers UK, we are very excited to be opening registration for this year’s National Gathering, to be held in Polzeath from 17-19 June and in partnership once again with our great friends at Tubestation.
After two years of not being able to hold this event due to Covid restrictions, we are so excited to be able to meet you face-to-face for a weekend of fun, fellowship, sharing, hopefully catching a few waves, and generally spending quality time with the family of Christian Surfers UK.
Not only are we able to gather again, but we will also be welcoming the International Director of Christian Surfers, Roy Harley, and his wife Sharon, as our guest speakers, all the way from South Africa, as they pass through for the weekend on their way to Greece!
The organising team are excited to be thinking of ways to make it a special event, with the theme for this year being ‘In God’s hands.’ That phrase means many things to many different people, but we firmly believe that your life, your work, your family, your church, and, of course, the mission of Christian Surfers UK, are firmly in God’s hands.
We will have time also to celebrate two significant events: giving thanks for David Renyard and the incredible service he has given us as part of the staff team since 2008, and who will be stepping down in early summer; and also celebrating Phil’s 20th year of living by faith running the Christian Surfers movement in the UK and further afield.
So please don’t hang around – getting your Early Bird bookings in by 5 June will save you some money!
In particular, if you are planning to bring children or teenagers, even if you can’t fully complete your booking, would you please let us know by emailing office@christiansurfers.co.uk so that we can start to make provision in the programme for them.
We’re very much looking forward to seeing you but if the cost is prohibiting you from being with us, please have a quiet word with phil@christiansurfers.co.uk to see if we can make this happen, as we believe that God is going to be working, moving, and shaping CSUK, not just for this year but into the future.
God bless
Phil & the organising team
