Your Call
Be part of something bigger than yourself
For Church planters
We want to help you start the adventure of planting a church within your local surf culture. The Surf Church Collective offers many resources … online training, conferences, podcasts, books and personal coaching to help you realise the dream of reaching surfers and the local beach community… Travel the world to see what church planting looks like in different contexts. Meet surf church planters as they engage their local community, using surfing as a tool to connect.
For Churches
I am an existing church (becoming surf-friendly): Do you live in a surf centred location? Are the people around your church passionate about waves? We want to help you become more surfer friendly and intentional in reaching surfers and the local beach community … sign up to receive our free resource pack.
Training
World-class training from pastors and leaders who are devoted to seeing you succeed. SCC’s comprehensive training consists of online basic training, along with a 3-day intensive, where you’ll have hands-on, face-to-face time with the SCC team. There will be pastors who have already planted churches, as well as other church planters that are on this journey with you.
Coaching
After training, you’ll have an SCC coach that will help you continue the process and answer any questions. Coaching is also available for existing churches who wish to become surf-friendly or extend their reach toward beach communities.
Relationships
We believe that no one should be on the journey of ministry and church planting alone.
