Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
TRAINING AND EQUIPPING:FFICM EQUIPS NATIONAL EVANGELISTS, PASTORS, AND CHURCH LEADERS TO EVANGELIZE, AS WELL AS FOLLOW UP WITH NEW BELIEVERS. WE TRAIN THEM TO SHOW NEW BELIEVERS HOW TO DEVELOP A LIFE-LONG FAITH IN JESUS. MOST TRAININGS ARE FOR A FULL WEEK, AT THE END OF WHICH EACH PARTICIPANT HAS PRACTICED EVANGELISM AND FOLLOW-UP IN THE CLASSROOM AND OUTSIDE IN THE SURROUNDING VILLAGES. WE EQUIP EACH PERSON WITH MATERIALS THAT HAVE BEEN TRANSLATED AND ADAPTED TO THEIR CULTURE, SO THAT THEY CAN CONTINUE TO EFFECTIVELY REACH PEOPLE IN THEIR AREA AND TRAIN OTHERS IN EVANGELISM AND FOLLOW-UP. EACH PARTICIPANT IS EXPECTED TO TRAIN AT LEAST 10 OTHERS. THEIR SUPERVISORS HELP AND ENCOURAGE THEM TO REACH THEIR GOAL.
CONFERENCES: FFICM WORKS WITH NATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS IN CONDUCTING LARGE-SCALE CONFERENCES(1,000-15,000 ATTENDEES), TEACHING NATIONAL LEADERS AND CHURCH MEMBERS EVANGELISM AND FOLLOW-UP. THE PARTICIPANTS ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT EITHER EVANGELISM OR FULL TIME GOSPEL WORK. AFTER THE CONFERENCES ARE OVER, MANY OF THE PARTICIPANTS GO DO AN OUTREACH AND PUT INTO PRACTICE WHAT THEY JUST LEARNED.
STRATEGY AND MATERIALS: WE ARE CONSTANTLY DEVELOPING MATERIALS FOR OUR TRAININGS AND CONFERENCES. THESE MATERIALS ARE IN LANGUAGES THAT ARE ACCESSIBLE TO THEM, AND ARE CONSTANTLY BEING HONED AND REFINED TO MEET THEIR UNIQUE SITUATIONS AND CIRCUMSTANCES.
