FGBMFI - GHANA THE MPO/FTO CONCEPT NATIONAL TRAINING

THE FGBMFI VISION IS ABOUT PEOPLE THE HOLY SPIRIT CHANGING LIVES GOD BREAKING THE CHAINS AND SETTING THE CAPTIVE FREE

Demos gave us the STRATEGY Send the men of the chapters out to the people! Get the people saved, delivered, healed outside the chapter. Then bring them into the chapter to be transformed into fishers of men. Don’t rely on bringing the people into our meetings ALONE to get the job done. Demos’ last words to the fellowship: “Break the mold and set men free!” Demos was referring to the mold of chapters that just hold meetings where sometimes no unsaved persons come and setting our members free to go and take Jesus into the marketplace with commitment and conviction.

MARKET PLACE OUTREACH (MPO) Market Place Outreach is simply taking our normal outreach to the Marketplace i.e. where the people are or love to be i.e. adapting our strategies to the specific environment. A place where people interact with other men. Where people do any legitimate business, where people exchange goods and services However, it has a more AGGRESSIVE & TARGETED approach and is more RESULT- ORIENTED Basically it is inviting a group of people to a meal (lunch) at a particular venue and telling them your story

Market Place Outreach Could be held on any day of the week Could be Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner just for 1 hour A minimum of 3 members can organize the programme It is simple, non-formal, fast & cost effective Invited Guests could be between 10 – 30 Could be held at: Workplace Canteens Restaurants Hotels Club Houses – Golf Clubs, Keep Fit Clubs etc. The Chapter’s regular meeting place.

MARKET PLACE OUTREACH (MPO) STANDARD PROGRAMME (45 – 60 Minutes) Opening Prayer - (1min) …………………………………………………………………………………………… Welcome/Introductions – (2mins) ……….……………………………………………………………………. Meals – (15mins) ……………………………………………………………………………….. Welcome 1st Timers – (2mins) ………………………………………………………………………………….. Promotion/Voice Magazine – (3mins)……………………………………………………………………….. Short Testimony – (3/5mins) ….………………………………………………………………………………….. Main testimony – (10–15mins) ….…………………………………………………………………………….. Altar Call – (2mins) ……….………………………………………………………………………………….. Membership Call – (2mins) ….…………………………………………………………………………………… Ministration – (3mins)………..…………………………………………………………………………………….. Announcements – (2mins) ………………………………………………………………………………………... Closing Prayer – (1min) …………………………………………………………………………………………… MC: There is no praises and worship on the programme, in other to save time There is also no need for a public address system, no offering as well Address specific needs when the meeting has formally closed

GUIDELINES Identify the Project Driver/Coordinator(s) Seek for a possible Venue Could embark on a “Voice walk” around the location. Visit Offices or Businesses around, about 1 to 3 days before the meeting and introduce yourself with your business card and invite them to the lunch. Emphasis should be on the business side of the meeting. Do not be churchy or religious in your approach

NEGOTIATING FOR LOCATIONS Have a business frame of mind or attitude and not a religious one Be businesslike in presentation and discussion with the Hotel/Restaurant owners Be very informal and not rigid Tell them ‘’We would like to have lunch with about 10-30 Businessmen and women between 12.30 pm and 1.30pm in your restaurant. Do you have the capacity to host us’’?. OR”

NEGOTIATING FOR LOCATIONS ‘’We have a convention of business men and women and we are having a number of mini lunch meetings for about 25 people at each location. We have come to discuss if your facility can accommodate our programme’’ Do not say “Our Fellowship will want to have a program in your restaurant”

NEGOTIATING FOR LOCATIONS Get a feel of the menu list and pricing before you commence negotiation. Negotiate cost of meals per head or a buffet Speak with the attitude that we are bringing good business to the facility Stress the need for the meals to be on time – this is key because it could cause a delay – this would not be good for us

INVITATION STRATEGY Combination of both formal (Invitation cards) and Informal, Word of Mouth. Let it be attractive. “We have a Businessmen’s Convention and we will be having lunch with other businessmen at -----------------------Restaurant for 45 minutes to 60 minutes. Will you want to join us’’? Voice Walk to offices, businesses close to the venue a few days to the meeting We could also have strategic MPOs e.g. the military, police, prison officers, Immigration etc. at their own premises

GUIDELINES FOR COORDINATORS   Your role as the Coordinator of your location is to ensure that the meeting is well organised, business-like, and you are basically in charge of all Logistics support for the specific outreach venue You will be expected also to coordinate the Emcee, Testifiers and also the Ushers SPECIFIC RESPONSIBILITIES A) To ensure that all key players (Emcee’s, Testifiers 1 & 2) are in the venue 30 minutes before commencement of meeting B) To ensure that a Pre meeting prayer for about 10 minutes takes place amongst the key players. You may lead the prayer or you can ask any person present to lead such prayers C) To ensure that all Logistic supports—Literatures (Voice Magazines), Attendance Register, Decision Cards, membership forms are provided. D) To work carefully with the ushers or on your own to ensure that all attendees complete the Attendance register and also that all souls won complete the Decision cards E) To record all the statistics of the meeting including: No of First Timers, Total attendance, Salvation, Holy Spirit Baptism, Membership forms collected F) To handover Follow up Invitation cards to every person who takes a decision for Christ and also every one who signs for membership but may not have taken a decision for Christ You are also expected to be flexible to also give any other persons who may not have taken any of the 2 decisions but you feel that the persons fits into the FGBMFI Vision G) To write a formal report with all the statistics and your comments of the meeting at the end of the meeting

GUIDELINES FOR EMCEE’S   Your role as the MCEE is very critical for this Market Place Outreach and your role is to guide by the Holy Spirit the spiritual flow and orderliness of the meeting You will be expected also to coordinate the 2 Testifiers, Share the Vision and also at the end call for membership if necessary SPECIFIC RESPONSIBILITIES To ensure that YOU OPERATE WITH A PROGRAM To ensure that all players (Testifiers) keep to their allotted time To keep persistent reminders to the players on timing and also be sensitive to allow key players the sweet environment to flow Be prepared to make calls that the main testifier may fail to do or remind such testifiers just before they step down (Salvation, Healing, Membership , etc.) To share the Vision using the standardised format with grace from the Holy Spirit To call for membership using the standardised format To ensure that meeting start on time and end on time and also having the ability to recoup time especially when people are half way eating

GUIDELINES FOR MAIN SPEAKER  Your are the MAIN SPEAKER who eventually makes the altar call BUT YOU ARE EXPECTED TO SHARE ONLY YOUR TESTIMONY because we are constrained by the venue and time and as such your presentation should be as business-like as possible  SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS Time allotted for Testimony and Ministry is 15minutes as the meeting is just for 45 – 60minutes. There should be no singing and presentation should not be churchy considering that the venue is in the ‘’market place’’ Ministry should include Altar Call, Ministration, Membership Call and the Holy Ghost Baptism depending on your specific location and the leading of the Holy Spirit. Come full of the Word and the Holy Spirit as we have been promised that God will do strange things as we go out that every ear who hear shall fear (Ps 67:7, Jer 50:33-34)

ADVANTAGES OF MPOs Most effective in terms of First Timers and our Target Group – likely more people for Salvation Most cost effective. (Cheaper than our standard/usual outreach meetings) Very few participants (10 – 30) A minimum of 2 members can organize an MPO Very time conscious Very quick and simple way of strengthening or opening new chapters

FUNDING MEMBERS OF THE FELLOWSHIP THE CHAPTER(S) REGIONAL NATIONAL NB. No offering is taken when an MPO is organised

THE FIRE TEAM STRATEGY

The Fire Team Strategy Fire Team approach – Taking our story to a target audience, at their own premises or workplace on an agreed date and time: (Unlike the MPO, no food is served, it takes a shorter time, virtually no cost) The Fire Team Strategy could be used on occasions like: Airlifts, Land-lifts, City Storms, Conventions, NGMs etc Hospitals Parliament, Metro, Municipal, District Assemblies etc Ministries and Departments Military, Police, Prisons, Immigration etc Universities

The Keys of The Fire Team Outreach Fervent Prayer Commitment, Availability, Readiness to GO, MOVE Short Testimonies (5-10minutes by 1 or 2 members) Voice Magazines to distribute Invitation to the nearest FGBMFI activity or chapter

Modalities of Fire Teams Outreach Identify a location(s), institution or organisation Make necessary contacts Obtain all necessary approvals Fix dates Mobilise the men Work out the programme Make materials available – summary sheets, attendance sheets, Voice magazines No meals involved, no offering Shorter time than MPOs – could be 30 minutes or less Sometimes you may not even need any pre-approvals

Scenario - Fire Team to XYZ Ltd Introduce Team/FGBMFI – explain the visit very briefly Tell your stories (1 or 2 to share short testimonies) Altar call Call for membership men & the business Allow for a few questions from the audience Take particulars of all who respond to Altar Call and Membership Call Advise audience of locations of local chapters: meeting dates, times & venues Contacts numbers or business cards could be given out

WHO CAN PARTICIPATE? Members of the Fellowship A Chapter Regional National

ADVANTAGES OF FIRE TEAM OPERATIONS Inspires Growth in membership Expanded influence of the Fellowship in your City A great concept for fulfilling the Great Commission Opportunity for Field Representatives/SWAT to strengthen weak chapters from the harvest Opportunities for birthing new chapters

ADVANTAGES OF FIRE TEAM OPERATIONS Very Quick & Very Cost Effective No Food Served, No Offering Provides Training Opportunities For Members Provide Opportunity For Subsequent Visits Quick Way To Boost Membership or start a new chapter

“The Vision Intensified” – pg 16 It is time to GET OUR EYES OFF THE PAST! It is time to stop talking about how much we have accomplished, and start prayerfully seeking God on WHAT HE WANTS TO DO NOW and WHAT HE WANTS FOR THE FUTURE! GOD ALONE CAN CHANGE OUR WORLD – all we can do is prepare and avail ourselves to serve as God’s vessels
