CSI networks national Christian Surfers missions as an international movement. Affiliated missions appoint CSI leadership and agree on core strategies.
Our Structure
Affiliated missions are represented on the CSI Council, which appoints the International Director and a Board of Directors. Regional Coordinators are appointed by the International Director with the regional affiliates to support the missions in their regions. The legal entity of CSI is a company registered in Australia. Affiliated missions have their own independent legal identity. Affiliated missions are united with each other through their agreement to Christian Surfers’ vision, core values and statement of faith, through observance of our Mission Manual, and through relationships of trust.
Our Accountability
The International Council, made up of representatives of each Affiliated Mission, meets every two years to determine overall vision and strategy. The Council appoints the International Director and Board. Between meetings the Board holds the International Director accountable on behalf of the Council. Reports on activity and finances are provided to the Council on a yearly basis.
The Board is responsible for the operations of Christian Surfers International Limited, a company registered in Australia, which is the legal holder of CSI assets.
The CS Mission Manual sets out accountability processes for affiliated missions, which include establishing an appropriate legal entity, auditing of financial records, having a covering local church for key leaders, and having a board to overview mission operations.
