Surfing in Nicaragua

January 7, 2009 - 8:51pm — Tarzan

Mission Overview

1) What is Surfing With a Purpose?

It is the concept of Surfers who want to blend their love for surfing with their love for people. In the past we have taken 2 days out of each trip to help a local family. We take on projects according to community needs, so far we have done concrete floors, built a house, installed a well, provided shoes, clothing, food, medicine, and hope. The other 8 days consist of adventure and lots of Surfing.

Genesis 39:1-9
1 When Joseph was taken to Egypt by the Ishmaelite traders, he was purchased by Potiphar, an Egyptian officer. Potiphar was captain of the guard for Pharaoh, the king of Egypt.

2 The Lord was with Joseph, so he succeeded in everything he did as he served in the home of his Egyptian master. 3 Potiphar noticed this and realized that the Lord was with Joseph, giving him success in everything he did. 4 This pleased Potiphar, so he soon made Joseph his personal attendant. He put him in charge of his entire household and everything he owned. 5 From the day Joseph was put in charge of his master’s household and property, the Lord began to bless Potiphar’s household for Joseph’s sake. All his household affairs ran smoothly, and his crops and livestock flourished. 6 So Potiphar gave Joseph complete administrative responsibility over everything he owned. With Joseph there, he didn’t worry about a thing—except what kind of food to eat!

Joseph was a very handsome and well-built young man, 7 and Potiphar’s wife soon began to look at him lustfully. “Come and sleep with me,” she demanded.

8 But Joseph refused. “Look,” he told her, “my master trusts me with everything in his entire household. 9 No one here has more authority than I do. He has held back nothing from me except you, because you are his wife. How could I do such a wicked thing? It would be a great sin against God.”


Gen 39:9 Overcoming temptation is the banner theme of this passage but it would be impossible to understand Joseph's strength, with out noting God's hand of Favor in his life. This Favor accompanies those who enjoy the LORDs presence as you see in verse 2-3. "The Lord was with Joseph." God will grant you success, when you grant Him a place in your life. (Just make sure you finish this Chapter, because our view of success and God's view can be very different.) See also 1 Cor 10:13 Post in the new Forum http://surfpurpose.com/forum ...

The first house project is coming along, see for yourself...

Summer Missions Continue in Nicaragua

May 27, 2007 - 7:39pm — Tarzan

It was a little sad to leave Antigua and all of our new friends in Guatemalan. The little cobblestone city of Antigua grows on you with its rich culture, friendly people and incredible bakeries. I would recommend visiting Guatemala to anyone and everyone. During our stay we attended the Christian Spanish Academy and stayed with a local family. Check out http://www.learncsa.com/ if you’re interested.
On May 19th Craig Watson and I boarded the bus once again and started our journey back south. The bus ride from Guatemala to Nicaragua passes through El Salvador and Honduras. Since the bus ride last three days, so we decided to stay a few nights in La Libertad, El Salvador to surf the famous right hand point breaks. I won't get into it, but El Salvador is definitely the Wild West. Just stay in your room after dark and if you've never previously prayed to God for protection... it's a great place to begin exercising your faith. If you’re really not into prayer then I would suggest a hand gun and an armed Guard.
On May 22nd (my birthday), we returned to Nicaragua to continue in our mission work and prepare for another team to arrive from Florida. I've begun growing tomatoes and watermelons as the second stage of the Agua Viva well project. The 3rd stage will begin soon as we construct screen rooms for the vegetables and pipe water to the families.

Thank you ALL for your support,
Blessings,
Danny Cruden

Nicaragua April 24th

April 24, 2007 - 8:50pm — Tarzan

Hey Everyone,
I'm down in Nicaragua at the moment, just finished our first trip for this year. We visited the families in La Pita (where we are digging a well) and they are hanging in there. Most of them were out of food so we did a food run for them yesterday and bought them some new shoes. Some of the Guys brought childrens vitamins and handed those out.
