Name: James LeRoux
Role: Media Manager CS South Africa, Web Manager for CSI
Country: South Africa

I've been invited to attend the Christian Surfers International Gathering in Indonesia; an every three year international event bringing leaders across the CS movement together! There I would build new connections, learn from experienced leaders, hear about what God is doing around the world and build a greater network of media related partnerships that will expand the gospel’s reach through surfers and for surfers! 

When I am there I will serve as part of media & audio visual team to ensure that the event can be live streamed around the world, plus help film some unique videos to gather stories and testimonies for a few different projects of CSI. 

Your giving really helps support this opportunity to serve the global CS family and cover the costs. Coming from South Africa, it is far away and expensive, so my goal is AUD $2750 / ZAR 32,700  which is all the costs for flights, transport, conf costs, food & drink and visa/entry requirements. 

Would you consider partnering with me today to help generate the funds to contribute to covering the cost of getting me there this July?

My heart is to serve and play a part in the global movement with the media and video gifts God has given me... plus this would be my first trip out of South Africa and this would be an amazing experience and blessing to go!

*Each donation will be met with a matching gift courtesy of Christian Surfers (up to $500AUD per nominee).

*If a team member can't attend the Gathering, their raised funds will be allocated to support other leaders fundraising for the event.
