Prayer Request

February 8, 2019

2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

God Gives Strength

February 7, 2019

Today, a personal testimony from cofounder of SOS Events Ministry, Carolyn Curtis. “God is so good to me, Last summer I fell and broke my hip. Recovery was quicker than usual for a woman of 80 years old. In 3 months time I was walking without a walker or cane and was able to resume my regular schedule of travel and daily routine.

The autumn activities are busy and then the Holiday season with ministry and family. What a time of activities. God gave strength through all of that with a minimal pain.

Then came January, busy in the office, the annual meeting and now Strawberry Festival preparation. Saturday and Sunday last week I prayed for strength for a very busy weekend. Hosting company from out of town, annual meeting and a wedding on the same day and cooking brunch for 18 on Sunday. No pain, energy to get everything accomplished and not even a nap. God blessed me abundantly and I just want to praise Him publicly.”

Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Florida Strawberry Festival

February 6, 2019

It is hard to believe that the Florida Strawberry Festival is 3 weeks away. The excitement of the opportunity to win people to the Lord is building. There are still decorations to be made for the booth, several trainings to get new workers, finalize the schedule and many things to numerous to mention. (2018 photo)

Please pray with us for a wonderful harvest of souls at the Festival this year. All the work that goes into a large event is worth everything if only one soul gets saved, but we are setting a goal and praying for 300.

1 Thessalonians 5:25 Brethren, pray for us.

Power

February 5, 2019

Electricity is so important to our way of living that if the power goes out we have a problem functioning. The SOS Events office was closed yesterday and today because of electrical problems that needed to be resolved. The whole property including 2 offices, workshop and Curtis home was without electricity. No work could be done so nothing was accomplished.

As Christians we have a source of Power in our lives to get things done. That Power is the Holy Spirit. Sometimes, the power gets shut off because of sin, indifference or disobedience. Spiritually, nothing gets done. No souls are won because we don’t witness, prayers are not answered because we don’t pray and the worst thing,we have no fellowship with our Savior, Jesus. If our Power is damaged, let’s get it repaired. Repent and renew our relationship with the Lord. Ask His forgiveness. He is waiting to restore the Power in our lives.

Romans 15:13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.

Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Keynote Speaker Pastor Theodore Martens

Carolyn Curtis with Pastor Theodore Martens

SOS ministry — There yesterday at their annual presentation where their effectiveness in evangelistic outreach was so evidently reported for 2018.

A great Gospel and outreach ministry worthy of your financial support. One of the best accountable ministries out there that will use what you give for real Gospel and soul-reaching purposes.

Tom Curtis went to be with the Lord in early 2017, and Carolyn Curtis still carries on Tom’s vision, purpose and plan, alongside of many others at the same headquarters in Dover, Florida.

I was reminded again of Tom’s passion, unique giftedness, love for evangelism, his unrelenting and effective activity in sharing the Gospel himself, his drive into and throughout 70’s, and the moving story of his own salvation experience as a successful executive who came to know Jesus through the tragic sudden death of his son.

Theodore Martens

Acts 20:24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

Exciting Day

February 2, 2019

This photo was taken at SOS Events Annual Meeting last year. About 35 people attended. Today is the second Annual Meeting and over 75 people have registered. Over double from last year. God is blessing SOS Events with new people and new opportunities. Please pray for a great meeting and God’s continued blessings and that He will expand our coast as He did Jabez.

1 Chronicles 4:10 And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

God is Love

February 1, 2019

February is the month we think about Love. Some of us have a wonderful love story and others have only heartache and disappointment in love, but for all of us there is Someone who loves us more than we can ever imagine. God loves us so much He sent His Only Son, Jesus, to die on the cross so we can have eternal life. There is no greater love.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
