blessing-of-the-wavesIf you’re a surfer who appreciates the ocean, then here’s an event you might like to attend.  The second annual “Blessing of the Waves” ceremony is happening in Surf City a week from Sunday.

A handful of religious leaders will be on hand to bring together surfers and ocean minded people regardless of their faith and to show spiritual appreciation for the ocean and all that it offers.  

They will also discuss the impact of climate change and pollution in our communities and how it’s impacting the poor throughout the rest of the world.

The event which is hosted by the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange seeks to build on the environmental and spiritual messages from last year’s event. 

Everyone is welcome to attend.  For more info. on the“Blessing of the Waves” go to catholicclimatecovenant.com.

Where: Huntington Beach Pier, Northside

When: Sunday, October 4th 7 to 8:30 a.m

    Nice to see a lot of people from 0700 - 0900 for the gathering, and going to the beach, sending blessings and listening to the conch shell and the songs.
