Father Christian Mondor, 87-years old, was helped onto a surfboard and caught a small breaking wave. He was happy to get in the water.
“It takes a lot of skill, but it is a wonderful feeling when you are moving with the ocean, especially when you get to stand up and ride them [waves] wherever you want. Just to be in the water is such an invigorating experience. It is great to be back, all wet again,” said Mondor.
There is much to be thankful for, said Dean Torrence, who was half of the 1960s pop duo Jan and Dean. They helped to popularize surf music with songs like Surf City.
“The sand, the ocean, the blue sky, the weather. I mean, what could be better? I am very, very, very blessed to be here in a place that we call Surf City,” said Torrence.
Those who gathered here say for those of any faith, this beachfront setting is inspirational.
