Using Omega Zones 4K Outreach Training
What is an Omega Zone? A: Low Gospel Access B: Medium Gospel Access C: High Gospel Access
Ways to use Omega Zones • Adopt a zone(s) for prayer • Adopt a zone(s) for outreach • Gather information for whichever zone you visit on outreach • Track every place you go and every thing you do
Adopt a Zone(s) for Prayer • You can choose an Omega Zone using: • Google Earth file (http://4kworldmap.com/maps/) • Online Interactive Map (www.4kworldmap.com) • Prayer on a floor map • Commit to pray for that zone once a week, or once a day • Stay informed on the current events of that zone as often as you can
Adopt a Zone(s) for Outreach • Make as much of an effort to reach as much of the zone as possible • Stay informed on the current events of that zone as often as you can • Whether you visit one city or 10 cities in the zone, make an effort to document what types of outreaches or ministries would benefit the zone in the long-run • Fill out an Omega Zone Survey for each zone you visit (http://4kworldmap.com/tools/)
Gather Information • Before Leaving • Encourage the team to learn as much as they can about the Omega Zone (this would also aid in prayer times) • Unreached People Groups? Languages spoken? Political or ethnic conflict? History? Geography? Availability of the Gospel? Cultural facts? • Check our 4K Interactive Map for info by clicking on the Omega Zone you’ll be visiting (http://4kworldmap.com/map/) • During Outreach • Collect information on the basic physical and spiritual needs of the Omega Zones that are visited (for long-term use) • The easiest way to do this is to download an Omega Zone Survey (see previous page) and fill it out
Track Outreaches • 4K Tracker • Using the 4K Tracking software, you can track where you’ve gone and what you’ve done • This information will then be put into a larger database that will be used for future teams • Omega Zone Survey • Submit a completed survey, or any other type of research you’ve done, to the 4K Interactive Map once you’ve returned
4K Interactive Map • Be a 4K Registered User! • Go to 4kworldmap.com • Click on Interactive Map • Click on Sign In • Click on Sign Up • Submit Information • You won’t be registered until you answer the security questions email, so keep a close eye on your email box!! (Email us if you do not receive the security questions: 4kworldmap@gmail.com) • Once you’ve registered, you can upload all your information to the 4K Interactive Map yourself
GPS Outreaches • GPS Tracker • If you have a GPS device (unit or camera), you can certainly track the places you’ve gone • Our 4K Interactive Map stores KML or KMZ Google maps files, so register to the map if you’d like to add your point and pictures to an Omega Zone • Email us the final GPS files if you don’t mind us using them in trainings and seminars!
Be Safe and Ask Questions • Always value the feelings of the individual more than the information you’re trying to collect • Don’t be nosy, be caring • Be a question-asker, but don’t think you’ll remember everything from memory…write it down as soon as you have a free moment! • If you’re in a restricted nation, be discerning…your safety, and the safety of the people living there, is more important to us than the research!
