Trusting Through Joy And Sorrow

May 21, 2026

Proverbs 3:5-6 are my life verses and a steady anchor through both joy and sorrow. “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”

There have been seasons in life when the path was clear and full of blessings, and other times when the road felt uncertain and heavy. Yet through every mountain and valley, God has faithfully led me. When I did not understand why certain things happened, I learned to trust Him anyway. When joy filled my heart, I thanked Him. When sorrow came, I leaned on Him.

Looking back, I can truly say God has directed my path and given me a wonderful life through it all. Not because every day was easy, but because His presence, grace, and guidance never failed me. These verses remind me that when we place our trust fully in the Lord, He lovingly leads us exactly where we need to go.

What a comfort to know that when we surrender our plans to Him, He is always faithful to guide our steps. 

Opportunities

May 20, 2026

I was privileged to speak to a wonderful ladies luncheon, for Stonecroft ministries.

My daughter Graceanne had a demonstration of colors before I spoke. The music was beautiful. Lisa Echols sing the song “No More Night”. At the end of my testimony I always give everyone an opportunity to accept Jesus as their Savior. This is a monthly luncheon that takes place the 3rd Tuesday of every month.

If your church or group would like to have me speak, I do have some open dates on my calendar. Have car, (or plane) will travel.

Declare his glory among all people. Psalm 96:3

Exciting News For SOS Events!

May 19, 2026

We are thankful to share some exciting news—SOS Events now has a QR code for online giving!

For many years, faithful supporters have mailed checks to help keep this ministry going, and that is still a wonderful way to give. We are so grateful for every gift and every person who stands behind this ministry.

Now, with our new QR code, giving can be quicker and easier for those who prefer to give online—especially younger generations and those who like the convenience of using their phone or device. Our prayer is that this will make it easier for more people to partner with SOS Events as we continue sharing the Gospel and reaching souls for Christ.

Thank you for your continued love, prayers, and support. Every gift helps us continue the work God has called us to do.


“Every man according as he purposeth in his heart, so let him give; not grudgingly, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.”
2 Corinthians 9:7 (KJV)

A Beautiful Partnership in Reaching Souls

May 18, 2026

Recently, I had the wonderful opportunity to visit Source of Light Ministries, the ministry in Georgia that faithfully sends Bible studies to many of the people who make decisions for Christ through SOS Events Ministry.

While there, I met Carla, a missionary with Source of Light who helps process and send out the Bible studies connected with our ministry. She was so excited to meet us and to hear firsthand about the lives being touched through SOS Events.

What made the visit even more special was hearing this amazing testimony. Carla’s in-laws live in Perrysburg, Ohio, and their neighbor attended the Friday night car show where the SOS Events team ministers each week. Through that outreach, the neighbor trusted Christ as Savior!

Now, that same neighbor is continuing to grow in the Lord by studying the Bible lessons provided through Source of Light Ministries.

“I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.”
— 1 Corinthians 3:6 

Have a Blessed Sunday!

May 17, 2026

Jesus prayed often, and He gave us what we call the Lord’s prayer. 

If you have difficulty finding something to pray about pray the prayer that God gave us. In that prayer is what we need every day.

We need food, we need forgiveness of our daily sins, we need to forgive others. Everything we need is in this prayer.

Most important of all we need to to honor our Heavenly Father in everything we do.

Once we start praying we will know what additional things we need to pray 

Ohio First Car Show In 2026

May 16, 2026

The SOS Team in Ohio has started the season in a wonderful way! At their very first car show of the year, 13 people trusted Jesus Christ as their Savior. What a blessing to see God moving in such a powerful way.

Car shows may bring people together because of their love for classic cars and fellowship, but we know the greatest reason we are there is to share the Gospel. Every conversation matters. Every smile matters. Every tract matters. And this first event reminds us again that God is still changing lives.

We are thankful for the faithful Ed and Rhonda who gave their time, energy, and love to minister to others. Seeds were planted, hearts were touched, and 13 precious souls made decisions that will last for eternity.

As this new season of ministry begins, please continue to pray for the SOS teams across the country—that many more people will come to know Christ.

“But he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.” — John 4:36 KJV

Honoring Tom Curtis, Cofounder of SOS Event

May 15, 2026
We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. 2 Corinthians 5:8

Yesterday was the anniversary Tom Curtis going home to be with the Lord. 

Tom was a very special man. He loved the Lord with all his heart. He was a wonderful husband, a good father and a loving grandfather.

His greatest accomplishment was cofounding SOS Events and ministry.

Tom had a vision. His goal was to see teams of soul winners in every state of the USA.

Today, the ministry still continues to grow, and those of us who knew Tom honor his memory.

Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
— Matthew 25:23 KJV

A Grandmother’s Prayers

Looking For Jesus!

May 13, 2026
“Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;”  Titus 2:13
Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;” Titus 2:13

Have you ever been excited about a special guest or loved one coming to your house?

You prepare by cleaning, cooking and making sure everything is ready. maybe you don’t know the exact time when they will arrive. Looking out the window, listening for every car or footstep to make sure you are there to greet them.

Christian, that is how much more should we be excited about Jesus coming again. The Bible tells us He is coming in the clouds. We do not know the day or hour but He is coming and it may be soon.

Are you preparing? Is your heart clean from sin? Every area in your life has been given to Him. 

Are you reading the Bible everyday, praying and looking for Jesus to come with anticipation?

Jesus is coming. Are you ready?

Titus 2:13 – Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;

Who Is The Most Important?

May 12, 2026

Who is the most important person in your life? It may be your spouse, a child, your boss or coworker, maybe your best friend. All of these people are important.

But, there is someone that should be the person that is even more important than anyone else.

He is able to comfort, guide, bless, and save you. He provides a way to eternal life through His death, burial and resurrection. His name is Jesus. Please make Him the most important person and Lord of your life.
