Singing Is Worship!

April 19, 2026

Sunday is a special invitation.

It’s not just another day on the calendar—it’s a call to come into the presence of God with joy in our hearts and praise on our lips. The Psalmist doesn’t say to come quietly, reluctantly, or out of obligation. Instead, we are told to come with gladness… and even more, to come singing.

Singing is a reflection of the heart. When we truly recognize who God is—our Savior, our Provider, our Faithful Friend—there is something within us that wants to respond. Even if our voice isn’t perfect, our praise can be.

Today, whether you are in a church service, at home, or quietly reflecting, take a moment to lift your heart in worship. Thank Him for His goodness, His mercy, and His presence in your life.

You don’t need a perfect setting—just a willing heart.

Come before Him today… and don’t forget to sing. 🎶

What Are You Seeking?

April 18, 2026

Have you found yourself chasing the treasures and pleasures of this world? Have you attempted to find peace and purpose outside of the One who created you?

It’s not too late for you, and you are not too far from God.

So what can you do? Seek Him. Call on Him. Change your ways. Turn to Him. And what will He do? He will be near. He will offer His mercy. He will forgive even the worst of your decisions, mistakes, and sins.

God is good. God is also good at being God. He created you, He loves you, and He wants a relationship with you. 

You can ignore His nudges and reject His love, continuing to do things your way. So while you still can … seek Him, call on Him, change your ways, and turn to Him. He is your loving Father, and He is your merciful God.

It’s Friday!

April 17, 2026

As Friday arrives, many of us look ahead to the weekend with anticipation—time to rest, gather with loved ones, and prepare our hearts for Sunday. But before we rush ahead, Friday gives us a quiet moment to pause and reflect.

What has this week held? Blessings, challenges, opportunities to serve, and moments when the Lord carried us through. Friday is not just the end of the week—it’s a reminder to finish well. To thank God for His faithfulness and to place anything unfinished into His hands.

The same God who walked with us Monday through Thursday will be with us through the weekend ahead. We can step forward with peace, knowing He is guiding every step.

Let this Friday be a time of gratitude and trust—resting not just in the weekend, but in Him.

Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established. Proverbs 16:3

A True Friend

April 16, 2026

If you have a true friend you are blessed. If you have several good friends you are extremely blessed. 

God gives us friends in our lives to come along by our side to uplift us in times of trouble or sorrow. They rejoice with us when we have joy. They are loyal. Thank God for the friends in your life.

There is a Friend that is even better than the one we have here on earth, His name is Jesus!

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. 15Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. John 15:13-15

SOS Events Around The World!

April 15, 2026

This past week, something amazing happened—over 275 people from Hong Kong, China, another 137 from Singapore, and visitors from more than 50 other countries came across the SOS Events website.

Just think about that for a moment… people from all around the world, different languages, cultures, and backgrounds, all connected by one simple thing—the opportunity to hear the Gospel.

We may not be able to travel to every nation, but God has opened a door through technology that reaches where we cannot physically go. Every visit is a soul, every click a chance, every moment an opportunity for someone to come to know Christ.

It reminds us that the mission field is not just across the ocean—it’s also right at our fingertips.

Let’s continue to pray that each visitor not only sees the message, but receives it… and that God uses SOS Events to shine His light into every corner of the world.

And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. Mark 16:15

Quote From John R. Rice

April 14, 2026

“The so-called “social gospel” lays stress upon this life, not on the next. In many quarters it is now regarded as very old-fashioned and passe’ to urge people to prepare to die. Social security, better housing, relief for tenant farmers, better living conditions for the poor and the care of underprivileged children—these have occupied so much of the teaching and preaching of these modern days, that preachers have left hungry-hearted people ignorant about Heaven.”
― John R. Rice

John Rice was a powerful preacher many years ago. He has passed from this life to a new life in Heaven. His words are still even more true today.

Are you ready for Heaven?

That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Romans 10:9

Lyle and Shirley Faithful Servants!

April 13, 2026

Lyle and his wife Shirley have been a tremendous blessing to SOS Events for many years. As faithful “snowbirds” traveling from Michigan to Florida, they have consistently given their time and energy to serve wherever needed.

Now, as they return to Michigan, Lyle is stepping into an exciting new chapter—helping to start and strengthen a team there. He works alongside an established group led by Loraine and Larry, faithfully supporting their SOS Events outreach efforts.

What makes Lyle’s story especially inspiring is that he is embracing this new responsibility at 91 years old. His willingness to serve proves that God can use anyone, at any age, who is willing to step forward in faith.

Lyle and Shirley are shining examples of dedication, faithfulness, and a heart for reaching others.

And even to your old age I am he; and even to hoar hairs will I carry you: I have made, and I will bear; even I will carry, and will deliver you. Isaiah 46:4

Sunday A Day To Rest!

April 12, 2026

Sunday is often full—church services, conversations, meals, and responsibilities. But beyond all of that, God invites us into something deeper: rest for the soul.

This kind of rest isn’t just sitting still—it’s remembering.

Remembering how good God has been.

Remembering His faithfulness through the week.

Remembering that we are held in His care.

The psalmist didn’t say, “Find rest somewhere new.”

He said, “Return unto thy rest.”

That means your soul already knows where peace is found—in the Lord!

Return unto thy rest, O my soul; for the LORD hath dealt bountifully with thee.” Psalm 116:7 (KJV)

Training For A New Volunteer!

April 11, 2026

It was such a blessing to welcome Ana to the SOS home office in Dover, Florida this week. She made the trip all the way from Jacksonville with a desire to learn, grow, and get involved in the work of the ministry.

Ana came to be trained, and it was clear right away that she has a heart ready to serve the Lord. After her time with us, she is preparing to volunteer at upcoming Flea Market outreaches—an area where so many lives are touched with the Gospel.

Even more exciting, Ana will be stepping into a key role as the secretary for the newly formed Jacksonville, Florida SOS team. What a joy it is to see God raising up workers who are willing to not only go out and witness, but also help organize and strengthen the ministry behind the scenes.

We are thankful for Ana’s willingness to serve and her desire to be used of the Lord. Please join us in praying for her as she begins this new chapter—both in outreach and leadership.

Here am I; send me.” — Isaiah 6:8 (KJV)

Two Egg Hunts On The Same Day In Florida!

April 10, 2026

This past Saturday, just before Easter, SOS Events had the privilege of being part of two special egg hunts in Florida—and God truly blessed both opportunities.

At the stadium in Plant City, families gathered for a fun-filled day of activities, laughter, and excitement. In the midst of the festivities, the Gospel was shared, and we rejoice that 5 individuals trusted Jesus Christ as their Savior. What a reminder that even simple community events can become life-changing moments when the message of hope is presented.

At a local Missionary Baptist Church, another egg hunt brought people together in a more intimate setting. There, hearts were touched as well, and we praise the Lord that 2 people made decisions for Christ. Every soul matters, and heaven rejoices over each one.

The LORD is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth. Psalm 145:18
