Mission Affiliation
Each year, your mission needs to complete the Mission Affiliation Form which is due before the 30th January annually. These forms will be made available to complete from November in the year prior. This is completed by your Mission Coordinator with important information to help CSA have an understanding of what is going on across CS in Australia. Please find the link to this form below.

CSA offers its missions Liability Insurance Cover, each mission needs to complete the Mission Affiliation form to be covered by this insurance. When we have received this form in the National Office we will send you an invoice which is $650 for existing missions and $250 for a new mission. Each mission will need to raise this money, there are a number of ways you can do this, eg. BBQ at their church, start a crowdfunding page etc.
