Happy Mothers Day 

May 8, 2016

May God bless all the Mothers who read this blog. God gave us a special high calling in life when he gave us children. Every Mother is a teacher, nurse, helper, example and many more things to her children. It is a great responsibility but also one of the greatest blessings a woman can have.

Our children reflect who we are. So Moms be the best you can be for them. The only way that we can be what our children need is through Jesus Christ. Follow Him and get instruction from the Bible that has much to say about rearing children. Then when they are adults thy will know they are blessed to have a Godly Mother.

Proverbs 31:28 Her children arise up, and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praiseth her.

God Answers Prayer

May 7, 2016

God answers prayer. Tom Curtis, founder of SOS Events Ministry, is at home after a long hospital stay, 24 days. He still has some health issues and he would appreciate your prayers, but he wants to Praise the Lord for His faithfulness to answer prayers.

The Bible tells us to give thanks for everything. Illness, problems and circumstances beyond our control. God has a plan and purpose for our lives and He will bring it to pass. He loves us with a love that sometimes we cannot comprehend. He gives us victory in every situation.

Today take time to thank the Lord for the blessings He has given you.

1 Corinthians 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

SOS Events Expanding

May 4, 2016

In an email from Patty, one of SOS Events faithful missionaries, came the following opportunities:

Found out yesterday that we will get to train our Hispanic ministry on Sos this Sunday and that my family has the opportunity to take SOS to the South American town of Leticia along the banks of the Amazon to the natives in villages there the end of July. Praying about all of this and will keep you posted!

Praise the Lord for the expansion of SOS Events in the USA and around the world.

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

Catherine

April 8, 2016

Catherine is one of our wonderful, faithful Senior Servants. She is now moving on to a new phase of her life. She is moving to North Carolina to be close to here daughter and we at SOS Events want to wish her well. Knowing her she will find a place in her new home that she can continue to work for the Lord.

I like to call her one of the 3 Musketeers because she always comes with two of her friends, Caroline and Sarah to work. These 3 ladies are amazing. In the summer when Senior Servants do not meet because of the heat and many go away for the summer, these ladies insist on coming and working anyway. She has been a blessing to SOS Events.

Catherine, we love you and you will be missed.

Matthew 25:23 His lord said unto him, Well done, 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.

True Friend

April 4, 2016

Proverbs 27:17 Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.

God has blessed SOS Events Ministry with many good friends. An example of unselfish friendship is David, who has been working on the SOS property for 10 or more years. He builds all the displays that are used in the ministry, repairs buildings and does maintenance on the office, workshop, printshop and grounds.

More than that, he has become a faithful friend in good times and times of hardship. Saturday morning there was no water. The Curtis home shares the property with the buildings of SOS Events Ministry and there was no one in the office  or on property on the weekend. Carolyn discovered a water leak at the pump and did not know what to do. Tom, recovering from surgery,  could not check it out so Tom called David and he immediately came to the rescue. Within a few minutes he discovered the problem and fixed it.

David may have had plans for the day, he may have wanted to rest or do something for himself but he did not hesitate to come quickly when he was needed. That is true friendship.

  


Wait on the Lord

April 2, 2016

“I don’t understand it. The stint that I put in is nonviable. There is no blood going through it at all, but your leg is warm, there is no swelling, blood is flowing and your incisions are healing.” spoken by Tom’s surgeon this week.Then he went on to explain how over the months the little vessels have expanded and taken over the blood flow of the vein that has been removed. There are no main veins going to the lower leg and foot and still the circulation is improving.

Then the great statement from a doctor that is not a Christian. “Only God could have done that. He created your body to compensate for the loss.”

Sometimes we wonder why things happen and why it take so long to see results of prayer. It took months for those little vessels to expand. Ordinarily they would have burst like a balloon with too much air but instead they expanded. God is healing but on His timetable not ours. Waiting is always hard but God is in control.

Please pray for Tom that healing will complete. There is still several months of treatment and some plastic surgery in the future. Also, pray for this doctor and the plastic surgeon to be saved.

Psalms 27:14 Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.

Salvations

March 30, 2016

On Monday, Dena and Glen, faithful SOS Events workers, went to the Webster Flea Market in Florida and Five people were saved. What a blessing. Please pray for these new converts.

Luke 14:23 And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.

Grandchildren

March 28, 2016

Grandchildren are a wonderful blessing from the Lord. Yesterday there were many family pictures posted on Facebook and other media of our family dressed for Easter. The children looked happy and excited. The little girls looked beautiful and the boys handsome. What a blessing that they could enjoy the freedom to worship at church, eat candy from their Easter baskets and enjoy time with their families doing fun things together.

Our world is changing and the future for the young ones is uncertain, but the one thing that is certain and unchanging is that each of the grandchildren will be with us in heaven if they trust Jesus as their Savior. (Thankfully most of them have already done that)

Proverbs 17:6 Children’s children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.

  

Serving Our Savior

March 24, 2016

The Flea Market in Plant City, Fl on Wednesdays continues to have souls come to the Lord. Last week  16 people trusted Jesus as their Savior and yesterday 2 more came to Christ. What a wonderful opportunity to serve the Lord weekly.     

Psalms 100:2 Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing.
