Follow-up: Church Follow-up

Counselors assist each inquirer in filling out a card with specific information. A corps of trained volunteers work through the night to process the inquirer cards following each crusade service. The name of each inquirer is referred to a local church the same night the counseling occurs. Local pastors are asked to contact that person and to encourage him or her in their Christian faith. Each pastor is asked to report to the crusade office on every name they receive. The team wants to ensure that when the crusade office closes several months after the meetings every inquirer is satisfactorily linked with a church.
