HOPE TO SEE YOU AT CAMP!

Scholarships are available upon request.

Walking On Water is proud to present a unique opportunity to enjoy the awesome sport of surfing in a fun and fulfilling Christian environment. For the past 14 years thousands of students from all over the world have attended the overnight surf camps. Our camps are open for male and female students between the ages of 11-18 and are designed for beginner – advanced surfers. All levels of surfers will enjoy the beach front accommodations in San Onofre, California. A typical day at camp includes the following: breakfast, morning Bible study, surf session #1, lunch, surf session #2, rest time, dinner, small group time with counselor, recreational activities, nightly worship and Bible study, hang out time, and bed time.

Professional Athletes and Musicians partner with Campus Clubs to Bring Awareness

The Cause will raise awareness amongst middle and high school students surrounding legislative and educational reform efforts by the Chelsea’s Light FoundationTM. Students will learn how they can serve to make an impact in their community and on their campuses. They will also hear first hand from recognized skate, surf and football professional athlete’s their testimony of overcoming tragedy and making a difference. The main presenter for the evening is Bryan Jennings, Professional Surfer and Founder of Walking on Water Ministry.

Special guests include: Professional skate boarder Brian Sumner, professional surfers Matt Beacham and Bryan Jennings, and NFL player Marlon McCree. Jordan Frye and Trevor Davis will be the musical artists.

This event was organized through collaboration of San Diego County youth ministries including Horizon’s Innerstate 180, Fellowship of Christian Athlete’s, Young Life, Urban Youth Collaborative, and Walking on Water. Members of the San Diego CityFest with Luis Palau “Livin It” team came alongside these ministries to help build a Season of Service event honoring the King and Dubois families. The goal of “Livin It” is to engage youth in the midst of their own culture and to meet them with questions about faith and their role within their community.

The Cause is May 21st from 6 to 9 pm at Horizon Christian Fellowship located at 6365 El Apajo Rd in Rancho Santa Fe (92067). All are encouraged to attend this free event.

Back to the basics: Before we were blind now we can see, before we wandered, now we follow Jesus as He leads us along the path of life. Psalm 119:105 says, “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path. Lord Jesus, please lead the way as we follow you closely.

Friends,
Please be praying for Todd and Renae as they lead our Walking On Water Mission Trip in Chile right now through Jan. 13th.
Below are a few photos of the team and a update with prayer requests especially for the Walking On Water movie night outreaches Weds. and Thursday of this week. I wish I could be there with the team, but it is so encouraging to see what God is doing through Todd and Renae as our Missions Directors!

Thank you for your prayers!

God bless you today,

Bryan J.

CHILE MISSION TRIP UPDATE FROM THE FIELD:

Hope all is going well! Just wanted to give you a little Chile update.
Everything is going great so far and the team is AWESOME!!!! A few people are sick so please be praying that they would feel better and more energized soon.
It has been so encouraging to team up with the YWAM crew over here in Pichilemu! It is amazing to see how the Lord is using this base to impact the community around them and share God’s love with the people here! The YWAM base is truly a part of the community here and it is just so neat to see how much the people respect Mitch and the other YWAM students. Mitch has done an amazing job at creating relationships with the locals- where, even if they are not believers they are accepting of the mission and message of the base. It is funny, we were walking to go surf the other day and Todd had to use the restroom but didn’t have any money with him (if you are in town you have to pay to use the bathroom)… There were two guys in charge of the restroom. He told them that he didn’t have any money and one of the guys didn’t care and just said “no” but then his friend Chimed in and said, “no, let him use it. They are good people” – It was just neat to see that the people in town really respect the people from the YWAM base… and that view seems to be pretty wide-spread with whomever we run into.
As far as ministry projects go,
We helped put on their surf contest at Punta De Lobos on Saturday. Some of the guys helped with the judging, other’s with signing people up and getting individuals ready for their heats, I took pictures, and we handed out some flyers with the YWAM base info on it so that people could get plugged into their summer programs- some of the guys on our team also surfed in the contest ! We got started a little later than we planned, but eventually, A LOT of people showed up to watch. Other than that we have been helping with odd jobs around the base, building walls, putting up fences, painting signs for with scripture on them for the base, painting the bathroom, etc. and last night we went to hand out flyers for our movie nights on Wed and Thursday! PLease be praying for our upcoming movie nights (Wed and Thurs). Everyone we gave flyers to seemed to be stoked about it so please pray that the Lord would use these events to open their hearts to His message of grace and Love…. and on top of all that we have somehow even found time to surf here and there!

Please take five minutes to watch this very encouraging Walking On Water 2009 Praise Report!

For the past thirteen years God has provided for the Walking On Water ministry mostly through individual financial supporters. We would like to thank each of you for your generous support over the years! It is very encouraging to look back and see all that God accomplished in 2009 through the Walking On Water ministry even during a difficult time in our nation’s economy. Over 100,000 people have been in live attendance during the Walking On Water Film World Tour, the film is now subtitled in sixteen languages, outreaches have been held in almost every major surfing nation, our 2009 surf camps went better than ever, and our short term mission trips have been very effective. The lives impacted with the Gospel in 2009 would not have been possible without your prayer and financial support! Will you please prayerfully consider your continued support of Walking On Water in your end of the year giving? If you haven’t already, will you also please prayerfully consider becoming a monthly financial supporter of Walking On Water? Our hope is for thirty additional individuals to commit to being monthly financial supporters because monthly financial support really helps us as we plan for 2010. Our ministry plans for 2010 include the production of the Promised Land film in Israel, the continued world tour of the Walking On Water film, short term mission trips, weekly Bible study, surf camps, and other outreach events. With your help and support we will have a far reaching impact on the youth of today, who will become the messengers of tomorrow. Thank you again for your much needed and much appreciated prayer, financial, and volunteer support!

Thank you and Merry Christmas!
