THE. S.O.S. FIELDWORK ACTION STEPS CONSERVE: Activities of Pioneer Worker (PW)

SOS ensures that the effort of the team will not be wasted. A trained pioneer worker who has been with the team throughout the fieldwork will take over the responsibility once the team pulls out. The FD will take tame to sit down with the Pioneer to assist the latter in drawing up details of the immediate conservation actions listed below.

1. REVIEW THE IPR FORMS. Carefully go over every IPR form. Know as much as you could about each convert/good contact. Plan your approaches when you do your next visit.
2. FOCUS FOLLOW-UP EFFORT. Concentrate your immediate follow-up effort on the core group members, converts and good contacts. Take care and guard these people, involve those who have already started or signified to do so.
3. PLAN VISITS. Make a decisive plan to each convert and good contact within the shortest period of time possible.
   1. Determine the number of days to accomplish this and the number of people to visit everyday. Example: You have 150 converts & good contacts that you determine to visit in 15 days, means you will have to visit 15 people everyday.
   2. Speed up work by visiting neighboring contacts/converts, families, getting help of provisional leaders & BS facilitators.
   3. Calendar your visits, write the names of people to visit/day.
4. ACTIVATE PROVISIONAL LEADERS & HELPERS. Meet with provisional leaders, BS facilitators and other potential leaders and helpers during the first week, before the second Sunday Service.
   1. Plan for the next Sunday Service
   2. Get their involvement in the follow-up
   3. Discuss with them their job descriptions
5. ORGANIZE ACCORDING TO IMMEDIATE NEEDS. The following committees are most relevant to pioneering work: Sunday Service Crew, Prayer & Intercession, Evangelism and follow-up, Records and Finance. As your manpower allows, appoint a temporary coordinator for each.
6. TRAIN. Draw up a simple training program to enable the new believers perform whatever work they have been assigned. Make the training short and your equipping lessons simple. Include only that which will help them assist you as soon as possible. Schedule more training later.
7. MAINTAIN RECORDS. Continue to record results of work. The progress of each convert/contact must be reflected in their IPR. The one in-charge of your records can serve as your `scribe'.
8. KEEP THE NEW CHURCH FIRED UP. Continue to plan to make every Sunday service charismatic, Pentecostal, joyful and meaningful. Always pray for people to be baptized in the Holy Spirit; make altar calls for commitment, deliverance and healing.
9. LET THEM EXPERIENCE GOD. Do not just teach them lessons. Lead them to experience God who answers prayers, heals, comforts, provides. Early in their Christian lives, train your members to bring to God in believing prayer all kinds of needs. Have testimonies shared.
10. FEED THE FLOCK WELL. Be a teacher that feeds the flock with what they need in the early stage of their Christian life. Let the new church grow together in the following basic areas: Worship, Prayer, Reading the Word, Witnessing, Victorious Christian Living
11. BUILD RELATIONSHIPS WITH YOUR NEW MEMBERS. Be a person-oriented leader first before being a function-oriented leader. Other than your discipleship session/visits, take time to meet with them in a relaxed atmosphere. Have some fun time together. Perhaps you can have a fellowship meal together. Approach your members as a friend.
12. KEEP YOUR PRIORITY. Maintain prayer and intercession and ministry of the Word as your priority. Continue to be spiritually vigilant.
