Summer

Franzi tells us about the Christian Surfers Girls weekend that took place in Hossegor end of August.

Hey! I’m Franzi, 18, from Bavaria/Germany. I participated in the Christian Surfers Girls Surf weekend last summer. In many ways these three days were a great time for me and I made some special memories that I will never forget:
For example the big delicious meals that we first made together and then ate outside in the garden of the surf hostel we lived in.
And the times when we went surfing on the beach and I finally managed to stand on the board for more then three seconds. I’m very thankful for the powerful feeling you have when you’re surfing a good wave, even if it didn’t happen that often haha.
We also had daily devotions when we read the Bible or different women either shared their testimony or gave us encouragement to quiet self-doubt and comparing ourselves with others, but grow into strong women who have their identity in God.
All in all, I found it very encouraging and refreshing to spend time with a bunch of young people that share the same belief as foundation which is a very powerful connection and also share the passion for surfing.
