Starting an Outpost or Homefront

Point Man is always looking for new leaders to expand the ministry. Critical to our success is the willing participation of dedicated leaders that have a heart for Veterans and issues faced by vets and their families. Key to the Pointman experience is the Outpost or Homefront. Each group is autonomous and is a part of the larger International organization. That means following the guidelines set out in the leaders manual, you are free to conduct your group within the guidelines. Pointman is a Christian veterans group that is open to any Veteran or their family members.

Qualifications of leaders

The requirements of an Outpost leader are:

• Must be a veteran with a DD214
• Agree with the Pointman International Ministries Statement of Faith
• Be under the spiritual cover of a local Pastor, understand and sign an affiliation agreement
• Sign and submit an SS-4 application with the IRS for EIN number
• Receive and submit a letter of recommendation from your Pastor
• Fill out a questionnaire about your goals and aspirations for your group

Under certain circumstances, a non Vet may be approved as an Outpost leader. However this is rare. Homefront leaders are wives, spouses or other family members or friends of a Veteran and meet to provide support for families.You will be provided an Outpost leaders Manual that will explain the duties of Pointman leaders, some of which include how to run a meeting, contact with the public, generating a referral network.
