Name: Lance & Rachel
Role: Regional Coordinators Christian Surfers Indonesia
Country: Tasmania

A little over a year ago, we were blessed to step into the role of regional coordinators, taking over from the legendary Brett Davis. From the very start, by the grace of God, we’ve seen incredible growth—specifically in Bali, where we now have three new chapters: CS Canggu, CS Bukit, and CS Kuta. We’re so grateful for this opportunity to serve and to help foster new communities of Christian surfers, sharing the love and hope of Jesus with those who live, work, and surf here.

This year, we have a special opportunity to participate in the International Gathering of Christian Surfers, which will be hosted in BALI. Being part of the planning team for this event, we feel strongly led to bring our entire family to Bali in July to facilitate and connect with the local chapters, help with the event planning, and strengthen our community ties.

To make this possible, we are seeking financial support to cover the costs of bringing our family of five from Tasmania to Bali for this impactful event. We are humbly asking for a contribution of Au $3000 to assist in these travel and accommodation expenses.

We understand that this journey is part of something much bigger than ourselves, and we are deeply excited about the potential impact this gathering will have on both the global Christian Surfer community and the local Indonesian surf scene. We are confident that God’s plan for this event will have a ripple effect in the lives of many.

We ask for your prayers and any support you can provide as we continue in this role, knowing that it is more than we could ever have hoped, dreamed, or imagined. Your partnership would be a blessing to us and the community we serve. Thank you so much for considering supporting us in this way.

We look forward to keeping you updated on how God is working through this event, and we appreciate your prayers as we embark on this exciting chapter.

With gratitude,

*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.
