The 9th CS International Conference will be held August 22-27, 2010 in South East Asia.
“Once again, the tribe is gathering. God is gathering his people from every corner of the world for our 9th International Conference. Great as this is, His desire is for EVERY TRIBE to be gathered to Himself. Revelation 7:9 shows the final gathering, “I saw a large crowd with more people than could be counted. They were from every race, tribe, nation and language, and they stood before the throne and before the Lamb.” This 'Every Tribe' conference will challenge us to reach out to those not yet gathered and to share in God’s heart for the unreached tribes. CS has its part to play. You have your part to play. Come gather every tribe with us!”
Richo, Australasia Regional Coordinator

Program
- Community and Family: We are a tribe of surfers but on a deeper level part of a global family of Jesus followers, getting together to celebrate who He is and being challenged to live the life He called us to.
- Inspiration: Hear faith stories from members of the CS family whom God has used in a radical way.
- Celebration: Praise, worship, communion with the nations in a cultural setting!
- Vision: See and hear reports from all over the world to gain insights and ideas. Experience the cultures of our world tribe.
- Resource: Participate in a ministry display of national CS missions and other surf ministries.
- Strategy: Meet with your region, participate in specialist tracks, connect with the global strategies.
- Surf: Surf with your global tribe, enjoy world class reef breaks, sunshine and great company and make a positive impact on the local community.
There is a rising groundswell of God at work amongst the surfers of the world, He is calling the tribe to gather, and there are still more to be gathered.
