!!!!WEEK 5 in review!!!! How is summer going by this quickly!!! We are taking in every moment, especially on ice cream days with @buddys.icecream!! This week we had a pretty beautiful swell come through and campers were dropping in and riding down the line! Each week we share “The Four” gospel presentation and campers were tuned in to hear the truth that comes from their Bibles they received. (Photo 1) We also had fun in the sand when it was time for a break! ⛱ Three more weeks of camp, and we are ready for EVERY second!!! #fcasurf #fcaevery2022 #fca

🌊WEEK 4🌊 We are at our halfway point in our camp season here at FCA Surf in OCNJ. This week went by way too fast!!! We got to see our campers go from scared to stoked! One of their favorite things to learn were the different types of waves out in the water, and the full armor of God during group time. We are sad to see the week end, but all ready for Monday to start! #fcasurf #fcacamp #fcamidatlantic #fcaevery2022

WEEK 3🇺🇸 Before we share more foam fest… week three was AWESOME! We celebrated America on Monday and God gave us beautiful waves! Campers faced their fears in the water and left camp with confidence and stoke. YEWWWWW #fcasurfcamp #fcasurf #fcamidatlantic #fcaevery2022

Each year, FCA introduces a new theme for all of their camps and clubs. This theme encompasses the reason we come together! This years theme is EVERY! We already have everything we need in Christ. It’s His approval we should be after and for His glory that we should be putting on our jersey or picking up our playbook and whistle. When we realize this, we are able to live every day as unto the Lord and receive the spiritual blessings He has in store for us. “All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with EVERY spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ.” Ephesians 1:3 EVERYTHING in Christ • EVERYONE through Christ • EVERY WAY like Christ • EVERY DAY with Christ • Are you ready to live it out?! #fcasurf #summer22 #fcaevery

Extra thankful for @mothergypsea and her family for getting this tree here, adding love to it and encouraging others to do the same. If you couldn’t make it, give this tree a visit on North street in Ocean City!🎄🌊 #northstreettree #fcasurf #fcaskate #fcamidatlantic

The OC Christmas parade was a blast! We had so much fun skating downtown, passing out candy canes, and collecting gifts for @hope4ac ! Thank you to all who helped us spread some Christmas joy! #stoked #fcasurf #fcaskate #fcamidatlantic #occhristmasparade

Get to Know Pete Davis! Pete came on staff as the FCA Area Representative serving the Surf & Skate communities of South Jersey. Pete grew up in Central Jersey surfing the local breaks and lives right outside Ocean City NJ with his wife, Lisa and their daughters, Chloe and Kassia. A graduate of Messiah College, Pete earned a degree in Education and maintained a successful teaching career in math, science, architectural design, and industrial technology at all levels of public education. Pete served as a FCA Huddle Coach for 10 years at Belhaven Middle School in Linwood, NJ and encouraged middle schoolers to utilize their gifts and talents to serve others for Christ. In July 2019, Pete and his family answered the call to serve as full-time missionaries with Rio Missions in Panama, where the ministry passion began with a surf and service missions trip. God’s leading back to the states during the summer of the pandemic expanded the already present connection with FCA Surf through multiple surf camp coaching experiences and revealed God’s non-linear path to share the Gospel. Pete's mission is to engage the local surf community by creating opportunities to reach surfers with the life-changing message of the Gospel. Pete’s vision is to equip surfers to live out their faith in and out of the water and empower them to do the same at their local surf spot, school, contest, or anywhere waves are found. Go give him a follow! @GreenRoomVision #fcasurf #fcamidatlantic

We can’t believe October is already over! The Halloween parade was a blast with an awesome turn with many of you all dressed up skating down town and passing out all the candy we could get our hands on! If you want to stay updated on more events stop everything and text @fcasurfsnj to 81010 #fcasurf #fcaskate #fcamidatlantic

Halloween Parade 2021! 🎃🛹 #ocnj #fcaskate #fcasurf #fcamidatlantic

Our trailer gets A LOT of attention during the summer which means it gets packed with sand and salt water. The boards also get lots of love in the water which means they needs more love at the end of our season. Now they are all ready for next season! 🌊💙 As surfers, it’s important to take care of our prized boards and even wetsuits. After your surf session, don’t forget to spray off your board of all salt water and to clean your suit. Keep it nice, and be able to enjoy it more! #fcasurf

Our FALL CHARGE meet up at 59th street was awesome!! The surf was up, the pizza was delicious, Chris Wilson sang some beautiful worship, and Pete Davis had a message for all ages about fear. He dove into Mark 4:35-41, when Jesus calms a storm. How can we PURSUE a life without fear? Here are three take aways! 1. Turn to Jesus! (Pray, know he is with you!) 2. Have peace! In the story Jesus tells his disciples, “peace! Be still!” Because he was with them. 3. Know that you have nothing to fear when Jesus is in the boat with you! #fallcharge #pursue #fcasurf #fcamidatlantic 🌊🍕🌅

FCA Surf is not only on the East coast, check out what FCA Surf looked like on the West coast this summer! Here are some shots from West Oregon (first 2 pictures) and Ventura California. Both camps focused on FCA’s PURSUE theme for the year, and enjoyed some beautiful waves in Gods creation. #fcasurf #pursue

Aaron Bogushefsky is a well known artist on the East coast, the art teacher at OCIS, the varsity soccer coach at OCHS, a husband and father, and an awesome surfer in our community. Did you know Bogy did the art on our FCA Surf trailers?! Bogy posted about his summer and his time at FCA Surf camp Atlantic City, NJ. Give him a follow! “Can’t believe summer is already over!?! Between art camp, coaching soccer, farming, commissions (I know many of you are still waiting), art show, camping trip, bathroom remodel, and so much more, it was a great summer. However, by far the most rewarding of all was working with the kids of Atlantic City with @fcasurfac, so awesome to see smiles on faces of kids who would have never surfed otherwise. Thanks @fcasurf for the opportunity to do the King’s work.” #fcasurfcamp #fcasurflovesbogy #fcamidatlantic

🌊SUMMER 2021 REVIEW OCNJ We are feeling sad that it’s all over, but can’t stop talking about how awesome it was!!! Our campers PURSUED the waves and their strength in the ocean as well as in their relationships with Jesus Christ. Our favorite parts of summer was how many days the ocean was warm and clear, the dolphins putting on shows, our foam fest contest, sooo many great wave days, too many donuts (in the best way), and learning the FOUR from each one of our instructors. 🐬☀️ #pursue #fcasurf #fcamidatlantic We want to hear your favorite part of this summer at FCA Surf camp! Comment below!

WEEK 8 OCNJ REVIEW 🌊 Our very last week of camp was awesome! The water was warm all week long, we had some more great rides as well as great conversations, and we ended the week with a paddle out to celebrate an awesome summer. See you next season! “PURSUE righteousness and a godly life along with faith, love, perseverance and gentleness” 1 Timothy 6:11☀️ Just 4 months until registration opens!

WE HAVE MERCH AVAILABLE!!! But ONLY for pick up at our camp trailer at 59th street in OCNJ for the rest of the week!! If you want one, head over between 1-1:30!

Girls staff at 7:55 in the morning…. the energy is unreal and the volume is up!!!!!

BE HONEST! How do you warm up after a long surf sesh?? 🌊🔥❄️

WEEK IN REVIEW OCNJ! Week 7 was wild (in the best way!) We had some great waves, more donuts from @dotspastryshop, and the scary weather on Wednesday had nothing on us. When waves get rough, we take a break and have a sand castle building contest! Check out our “sand shark” attack victim, we promise he’s okay!!🌊 #fcasurf #fcamidatlantic #pursue

WEEK 6 IN REVIEW!🌊 All smiles because everyone enjoyed great waves all week! Life changing conversations were had, first waves were ridden, friendships were made, and the week ended way too fast. Two more weeks to go! #fcasurf #fcamidatlantic #pursue

WEEK IN REVIEW☀️ This was a full week! First off, week 5 of surf camp in OCNJ was beautiful with clear water and great waves. We were even greeted by a pack of dolphins! Moving on to week 1 of skate camp OCNJ, a full week of campers learning to skate to perfecting new tricks. Lastly, week 1 of surf camp in Atlantic City, NJ! Follow them on Instagram @fcasurfac ! #fcasurf #fcaskate #fcamidatlantic #pursue

WEEK 1 REVIEW! OCNJ! One week down, seven to go in OCNJ! 🌊 We had some big waves this week, but campers learned to conquer their fears and got some awesome rides! We were also honored to host the FCA lacrosse interns for the day on Friday at camp (see last pic), this group was able to get up on some waves after the camp day was over and we were so stoked to hang out with them!#fcasurf #pursue #fcamidatlantic

Paul has a deep love for his local surf community, and a desire for those he comes in contact with in the water to see the love of Christ in simple and creative ways. He was married to his wife, Lauren, just last year and now has the full family experience with two boys and a puppy. Paul has been involved with surf ministry for 21 years, and has been volunteering with FCA Surf since 2014. He has recently stepped into a part time position with FCA Surf directing camps & clinics in Atlantic City, hosting ministry outreaches to the surf community, and coming alongside staff to disciple young leaders. Reach out to Paul at paspenberg@fca.org

Here is Matt Rossetti with how he PURSUES TRUTH! . . Romans 8:18 “I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing the glory that will be revealed in us” “I was told this verse by a FCA Surf Instructor back when I was a younger camper, and I’ve held it close to my heart ever since then. I reflect on it daily, and think it serves a great purpose of showing why Pursuing the Truth is so worth it! It is a simple verse, but it speaks wavelengths of truth. Pursuing the Truth can often be challenging for me, and I sometimes lack motivation. This verse lifts me up, reminding me that whatever is going on in life at the moment, will not compare to what God has in store for the rest of our lives to come. Pursuing the Truth in Jesus is the only way to navigate through what life throws at you, the good days and the bad days, and this verse shows us that in the end it will all be so worth it! The Gospel is the home of the ultimate Truth, and through reading scripture, prayer, and spreading the good news to others, we can find that Truth more and more in our lives! Thankful to my FCA family for always encouraging me to look to the Truth, and for helping keeping me stoked along the journey! “🤙🏽 #fcasurf #fca #pursue #pursuetruth Photo Credit: @thomas_cannon9

FCA has created a new and unique design within this years theme.
