Video Blessing of the Waves


 


 

Huntington Beach is especially fond of good waves. The surfers count on them for winning competitions, and for honing skills, or simply experiencing a fantastic ride, courtesy of mother nature. That is why it seems appropriate to celebrate the Blessing of the Waves which launched in 2008. In solidarity with other faith religions the Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange hosts Blessing of the Waves, an inter-religious community event to show spiritual appreciation for the ocean and all that it gives the planet and its population. This gathering demonstrates concern for a cherished environment already compromised by the effects of climate change, toxic emissions, and other pollution.
