The mission of Christian International Apostolic Network (CIAN) is to establish a continuing network of apostolic ministers based upon committed relationships, submission to Apostolic/Prophetic oversight, mutual accountability, and faithful financial support. CIAN serves in this way as a covering organization for trans-local ministers and organizations, as well as church leaders.

The Mission of CIAN to the Body of Christ
	Provide present-truth resources such as: books, teaching tapes, praise and worship songs, video presentations, etc.
	Provide special resources for activating and equipping the saints such as the Manual for Ministering Spiritual Gifts and Prophets and Personal Prophecy Teaching Manual . These are two of the greatest tools ever made available to the Body of Christ for teaching, training, activating, and maturing the saints in their gifts and callings. These tools advance believers toward functioning as members of specific ministry teams.
	Provide regional and international conferences to demonstrate and teach present truth.
	Provide specialty seminars for advanced training such as: Accelerated Apostolic/Prophetic Training Module - Church Growth; Prophetic Worship Seminars; Apostolic Leadership Seminars; Counseling Seminars.
	Provide regular publications: Covenant Partners Newsletter and CIAN Newsletter .
	CI Business Network for Christian business people (CIBN), a ministry for church business people. The goal is to help establish business network chapters serving to equip business people.
	CI has an Undergraduate and Graduate level, residential ( Ministry Training College ) and distance ( School of Theology ) college. Christian International Equipping Network (CIEN) has been functioning for over 35+ years. Ministers can further their biblical education and earn an undergraduate or graduate degree in Theology or Ministry.
The Mission of CIAN to Networking Churches
	Help each church to be grounded upon the foundation of presently restored apostles and prophets with Jesus Christ being the Chief Cornerstone (Eph.2:21). To cause each CIAN Church to become fulfilled, activated, and mature, enabling each of them to be a living demonstration of God's purpose for His Church today. This activation would cause each Church to send forth teams to demonstrate and minister Christ's life and purpose to His corporate Body.
	Provide a basic needs assessment of individual churches by inspecting the foundation (Eph. 2:20 ) through a ministry team conducting a church evaluation and offering recommendations based on the findings of that evaluation. The vehicle used for this evaluation is called the Ministry Assessment Profile (MAP).
	Assist in resolving differences or conflicts within the local church - through consultation with regional ministers, ministry teams assigned to aid pastors; Apostolic/Prophetic advice and counsel and on-sight arbitration.
	Provide an opportunity for continued growth by reviewing each minister's education and background experience to determine what course of study will best equip them in fulfilling their purpose. Provide courses of study which will aid ministers in developing greater people skills, more effective time management, and an increased understanding of the principles of God.
	Provide a place of accountability, oversight, and relationship to each CIAN Minister so that each local church body might be a place of safety, security, and blessing.
	Provide a network that establishes Apostolic/Prophetic local churches in present truth ministry. An Apostolic/Prophetic church has the goal and dedication to train every church member to function on a ministry team thus enabling them to fulfill their membership ministry in the Body of Christ.
The Mission of CIAN to Ordained Ministers
	Provide a network for relating to and sharing with other ministers and churches by means of developing regional centers within each major geographical sector where relationship and fellowship is encouraged and modeled.
	Provide for personal accountability and relationship - through personal contact and relationship with Apostolic/Prophetic Teams and other ministers- regional gatherings, seminars, and workshops.
	Provide licensure and ordination credentials offering various levels of commitment and relationship to meet the needs of individual ministers.
	Provide a means of restoration for pastors and trans-local ministers through covering, counseling, and support during restoration periods.
	Provide a legal covering for those who make application for exemption through inclusion under CIAN group federal tax exemption.
	Provide Regional CIAN Ministers Meetings by those who are called as Fathers and Mothers as a method for covering and accountability and to give oversight, input, and influence into the lives of CIAN Ministers.
	Provide Network ministers with the latest restorational revelation and present-truth understanding being activated within the Church.
