Click on the role to see the details:

* Christian Men NEEDED! Leaders TRAINED!

General Qualifications: Most roles in CSB require:

1. A maturing faith in the Lord Jesus Christ (although some adult helpers, specifically parents/guardians, may not yet be born-again Believers.)

2. A strong relationship between the CSB member and his church.

3. Being of the male gender. (This is simply because boys respond well to men.)

Text Box: The Pastor of a CSB Church - This man, or woman, has a huge influence on the lives of boys and men in his congregation. CSB is a Men’s Ministry and when the pastor(s) sees it as that, he can use it to affect the overall ministry of the church. By encouraging men—the best men AND the lesser men—to care for the needs of boys, he is telling to whole church that ministry involvement is important for everyone. By investing in CSB and its training, he’s building better men to serve in all areas of church activity. He is building the Church. The pastor, and the affirmation that he, or she, gives the ministry is a key to success.

Text Box: CSB Leader - The greatest role in CSB is to be the instrument that unlocks a young man’s potential to serve God Almighty as his Saviour, Master and King. This is the CSB leader: a mentor and discipler of boys for Christ. It is a role with huge rewards and great responsibilities.

Text Box: Adult Helper - This role is another important one; it allows for people who don’t have the time or inclination to be somewhat involved in the CSB ministry. Part-timers, drivers, unsaved parents, women, people who are well-skilled in one area, etc. can provide the ministry with timely help and resources.

Text Box: Local Church CSB Chairman - This person (in some churches, this role is filled by a female Children’s Pastor or Elder) coordinates the efforts of the CSB programs and the local church, as well as with the CSB Area or Service Committee. He, or she, finds the support, funding and leaders for the ministries, and ensures that the programs are attaining the goals set by the church.

Text Box: Service Committee Member - This is usually an active CSB leader in each local CSB church. The Service Committee is simply a small group of local CSB guys who are working together to reach common goals. The Service “district” is limited to three or four church sharing a common geographical region. Service Area Committee members tend to meet over the phone or by email.

Text Box: Area Committee Member - Again, this is an active member from each local CSB church. The Area Committee is an overseeing body which ensures that activities common to each group are done in the most efficient manner. Area Events such as Leadership Training, Shape-N-Race, Floor Hockey Tournaments or Campouts are typical examples. Area Committee meeting generally occur once each month. Each member is expected to work well with the CSB Regional Director.

Text Box: Area Committee Chairman - This man is elected by the Area CSB leaders, and helps coordinate the efforts of the Area Committee with each CSB church in the Area, with the CSB Regional Director, and with other Areas. He must work very well with the CSB Regional Director.

Text Box: British Columbia Regional Director - This is the official staff representative of CSB Ministries of Canada hired to extend the ministry of CSB into all Areas and churches in British Columbia. He works for CSB Canada but is supported prayerfully and financially through the gifts of BC Brigade benefactors, concerned leaders and inspired churches. He works with churches, pastors, leaders, Area and Service Committees, Area/Regional Staff Assistants, and the Regional Council to ensure that the goals of CSB are being attained in the BC Region. He must raise his own support. The “RD” provides Regional/Area Coordination, encourages participation, provides Basic and Advanced Training for all members of CSB churches.

Text Box: Area Staff Assistant - This man is an unpaid extension of the BC Regional Director to his particular Area. He is a volunteer and works very closely with the BC Regional Director, his own Area Committee, and Area churches and leaders. He provides training and encouragement, as well as timely advise. He will provide monthly reports to CSB. (There is a current need for ASA’s in several BC Areas—see below.)

Text Box: BC Regional Council Member - This team of men provide oversight for the BC Regional Director. They may or may not be active CSB leaders, but have gifting which will ensure that the Regional Director and the BC Region, are living up to expectations. Each member is expected to support the BC RD prayerfully and financially. CSB Board members are expected to be part of this Council. Pastors may be invited to be members who can provide effective Regional guidance.

Text Box: CSB National Director of Field Staff - This man helps guide the BC Regional Director to be more effective in expanding the ministry of CSB throughout the Region. He is part of CSB’s national staff and may work with the Regional Council to ensure that realistic goals are set for the BC Regional Director.

Text Box: President of CSB Canada - This man is the functional head of the CSB organization in Canada. He guides the ministry of CSB personally as well as through other people as needed.
