A special website that contains equipping resources and gives access to practical training that forms the foundation for appointing special Activation and Mobilization Teams with Team Leaders: Great Commission Resources
Accredited Certificates and Bachelor’s degrees are issued on completion of the courses.
The company is on the brink of making all the resources accessible through a physical Discipleship Bible School on a farm in Hartbeesfontein, South Africa. The existing facilities will be utilized and additional facilities will be built:
The Great Commission Activation and Mobilization Network will officially occupy the farm on 1 March 2022.
As part of a preparation phase, the GCR Support Team will plant a “discipleship equipping church model” (congregation) on the farm. It will not be a normal church but a training and equipping-based congregation which will lay the foundation for the rest of the project to be implemented. The Directors will carry out the groundwork to ensure a successful launch on 1 March 2022.
Planned Phases:
Phase 1: The GCR Support Team to get familiar and acquainted with all existing activities on the farm and to investigate the possibilities of expansion and potential farming possibilities.
Phase 2: Student accommodation: As soon as the farm is purchased, which may be before we officially occupy the facilities on 1 March 2022, additional accommodation is to be built to expand the number of students from 100 to 300. This includes the expansion of other facilities like bathrooms and the existing kitchen.
Deliverance facility: 10 rooms with bathrooms and other facilities, a lounge, and an office.
Office block: Ten offices.
Prayer rooms: Five rooms that can be used by anyone on the farm to pray.
Camping area: Preparing and equipping of a camping area (tents) (water points, power points, and braai facilities), additional bathrooms (ablution block), washing facilities, and shared kitchen as well as two lecture halls. The camping facilities will be used for presenting courses and conferences and equipping sessions like prophetic schools, marriage counseling, deliverance training courses, and other special courses.
Phase 3: (On 1 March 2022) Starting a vegetable farm on a huge scale to supply food to the students and the staff and to generate an additional income for the Ministry.
Phase 4: As soon as the Bible School is in operation, a Tuck Shop with fast foods, sweets, cold drinks as well as stationary and books will be opened.

SWOT Analysis Worksheet
Product/ Service Offering:
Strengths
One of the strengths of the Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC is that it has access to people who provides professional, unique, and valuable expertise, resources, and services to the company.
The people who manage the training and practical programs of the company have formed a strong partnership.
Unique services: The only training facility that provides Certificates, and Bachelor’s degrees in its field as well as practical equipping outreaches and ministerial opportunities. The Courses and Programs truly equip and enable the student to go out and fulfill the great commission and to disciple the nations as Jesus Christ and the apostles did. They are practically equipped to perform the same miracles, deliverance, and planting methods of house churches that we see and read about in the book of Acts.
Weaknesses
Many people just accept the assumption that the church cannot change and that people will not be willing to change or that people cannot be trained to do and to live as the people in Biblical times did. This assumption sometimes does influence decision-making and actions negatively and should be resisted at all times.
The Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC’s Support Team understands that this weakness is naturally part of the human race and that they have to overcome and resist these weaknesses.
Opportunities
All over the world, people are now more ready than ever to fulfill the great commission as Christ instructed the church to do. The Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC has moved into a strategic position to utilize and exploit this readiness by providing the means to achieve this and to provide the resources and expertise that the world is looking for.
Threats
The specific field that the Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC has focused on is new ground and some pioneering work needs to be done. This increases the possibility of error. The Support Team is well aware of this and intended to counter this threat as well and as professionally as they can.
Although the training and equipping courses of traditional Bible Colleges are completely different, it does capture a huge portion of the market. The Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC needs to capture those students that could have benefited a lot more from the Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC’s training and equipping abilities and practical training programs. The GCR Support Team realizes that a well-organized and very effective marketing program needs to be maintained at all times to counter this threat.
Brand/ Marketing:
Strengths
The Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC will embark on a marketing strategy which is focusing the attention of people on the life and acts of Jesus Christ and the early church. The marketing strategy is the equipping, activation, and mobilization of the church the way that Jesus Christ and the Apostles did it.
People want to be able to carry out the great commission like Jesus Christ and the apostles did. The marketing program will make potential students aware of the fact that the Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC can equip them to do that through its courses and practical training programs.
The Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC does have the staff and the expertise to carry out such a challenging marketing strategy successfully.
Weaknesses
The lack of facilities will initially be a weakness when it comes to branding but the tent ministry will counter this weakness to some extend. The partners trust in God and know that He will provide. So the weaknesses of The Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC will become its strength because of faith and trust in the God who called us to activate and mobilize the world.
Opportunities
The partners of The Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC are all well presented online through websites and social media platforms. These platforms will be utilized to create awareness for the vision and goals and services of the company through a well-created marketing video and other marketing strategies.
It will motivate people all over the world to register and book their spots in advance on these websites or through links on these websites and media sharing platforms. The online facilities enable us to generate an income from outside our borders as well.
The practical training schedule which will be followed is discussed in this business report.
A well-managed crowd-funding project is registered on some of the crowd-funding platforms with enough details and links to information that promotes the brand.
As soon as funds are available the company will embark on an advertising campaign which will include utilizing the following methods and media: Online, Print, Radio, Television, and Out-of-home. Marketing will include, a business website (already in place), Social media marketing (already in place), Email marketing, Mobile marketing, Search engine optimization (already in place), Content marketing (already in place), Print marketing materials (brochures, flyers, business cards), Public relations, Trade shows, Networking (already in place), Word-of-mouth, and Referrals.
Threats
The GCR Support Team can waste valuable funds and resources on marketing strategies that are not successful and effective enough if they are not watchful.
Staff/HR:
Strengths
The partners and directors of the board will be the only official staff employed by the company during the building and implementation phase of the facilities. All other staff will be non-paid volunteers. As already mentioned, the directors are experts in their fields which improves the services and sustainability of the company tremendously.
During the building phase, contractors and temporary workers will be utilized from time to time.
Weaknesses
During the tent ministry outreaches, we will have to depend on voluntary assistance from the outside which will not be under the control of the Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC. These aspects will have to be monitored and managed as professionally as possible.
Opportunities
The Church Expansion Program which is aimed at helping the organized church leaders to counter the damages caused by COVID-19 and to help them activate a healthy evangelism program in their congregations, allows Global Activation and Mobilization Network to utilize churches and their staff to improve the impact that the tent-ministry will have during the outreaches. This will make things a lot easier and it will advance the kingdom of God.
The Global Activation and Mobilization Network can improve and help the organized church and at the same time advance their own goals and strategies and programs in the process.
Traditionally, the house church movement and the organized church are not involved with each other in any way. If the Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC is seen and experienced as a true partner and “friend”, because they assist in a major way to help the organized church, it might change the attitudes of people. This strategy can improve cooperation in the body of Christ tremendously. This has the potential to benefit the company in terms of favor, assistance, and accommodation in many areas, during the tent-ministry outreaches and to advance the kingdom of God.
The harvest is vast and the church of God can benefit and can be advanced greatly if the two groups work together.
Finance:
Strengths
Although the Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC has a sound and strong business plan and strong self-sustaining potential, an initial cost of R500,000.00 rand is required to get the tent ministry off the ground. As soon as this phase is in place, the potential to meet the financial requirements will improve tremendously.
Weaknesses
The marketing strategy, as well as the crowd-funding project, will potentially improve the financial situation of the company, but, the possibility is there that we will have to build in phases and provide the services in phases.
The online Bible School has been in operation for almost two years.
The rest of the physical implementation phases will have to be managed effectively and successfully to ensure that we benefit to the maximum with the implementation of each phase.
Opportunities
Because we are building on a farm, we can utilize building technology that does not need to be approved by the authorities. We will be able to cut costs tremendously by utilizing strong and effective alternative building techniques at a lower cost.
Threats
There is the possibility that we may have to postpone the building phases for longer than usual because of the lack of funding. However, the tent-ministry should be a good strategy that could counter this threat successfully, by excelling in fund-raising. This strategy can also be expanded by utilizing more than one tent. The strategy can also be utilized indefinitely as a permanent source of income, even after all the building phases have been completed.
Operations/Management:
Strengths
The building phase will be managed by Basie Martins, Riaan Engelberch, and his wife Lynette Engelbrecht, who will be on the building site.
Weaknesses
The only weakness in this regard is that the directors on the premises will be responsible for all activities and operations on the site. Initially, no other staff, except for cleaning and maintenance staff, will be appointed until the need for more paid staff becomes critical.
Opportunities
The possibility of utilizing labor through the “Workaway” program and other similar programs, the farming and maintenance, and other services on the site can be done by unpaid staff. This will cut costs tremendously and it will decrease challenges and responsibility and accountability in regards to labor laws, procedures, disciplinary action, and other legal requirements and actions.
Threats
Initially, we might not experience any difficulty but when we are in full operation, the farming and other duties on the premises might be too much to handle and we may have to consider employing more permanent staff which will cost more and be more recourse intensive resulting in more labor and management challenges.
The possibilities of specialized services and programs might increase the need for appointing specialized staff.
Market:
Strength
The Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC has a huge market to exploit. Although we will initially focus on South Africa and the rest of Africa, our market is limitless. We will focus extensively on reaching the people of this world. The Americas, both South and North as well as Europe will be our target market.
Weaknesses
The Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC does not have offices in the areas that we will be targeting with our online marketing strategy. To counter this we will have to focus on technology like the internet and social media platforms.
Opportunities
The opportunity is there to source people in areas outside Africa that can assist us to expand our services. The online services are already available to the world but the potential is there to build physical training facilities or to incorporate existing facilities in other areas of the world as well.
Special agents and contacts can be appointed in countries all over the world that can be utilized to extend the reach of the Global Activation and Mobilization Network NPC in ways that are currently not possible.
Threats
The biggest threat in this regard is the potential of not reaching the world as effectively as we should. Marketing strategies to counter this threat will have to be investigated extensively. New Marketing Strategies will have to be implemented on an ongoing basis.
Can any of your strengths help with improving your weaknesses or combating your threats? If so, please describe how below:
We have identified the following strategies that will help to overcome some of our weaknesses: The Church Expansion Program which is aimed at helping the organized church leaders to help them activating an effective evangelism program in their congregations, will get an already well-established base on our side resulting in us reaching South Africa more successfully. This will improve the operation, fund-raising opportunities as well as sustainability of the company. It is however important that the organized church is aware of these programs and that they understand the advantages that it holds for them. All parties need to see the benefits and need to be willing to work together.
We are also going to source people in areas outside Africa that can assist us to expand our services. The online services are already available to the world but the potential is there to build physical training facilities or to incorporate existing facilities in other areas of the world as well.
Based on the information above, what are your immediate goals/next steps?
The immediate goals are to get the tent ministry in operation. This will pave the way to achieve all the other goals. In addition to that, we need to implement a successful and exciting marketing strategy. The plan is to have at least 10 x tent ministries in operation all over South Africa to equip people but also to promote the services and resources of the Global Activation and Mobilization Network.
Based on the information above, what are your long-term goals/next steps?
As soon as the above action plans are implemented, we need to finalize the building plans for the expansions, investigate the building techniques thoroughly, investigate farming techniques, and get ourselves ready to carry out the building phases (expansions) and the farming operation successfully.
As soon as enough funds are available, we will have to decide how and when to proceed with the different building phases.
