Thank You To SOS Events Supporters

July 19, 2022

Thank you who give to SOS Events Ministry. Founded in 2001 this ministry has documented over 80,000 souls who have made decisions to follow Jesus. There are some of you who have prayed, volunteered and given financially since the very beginning. Others are new supporters.

Contributions come in snail mail with checks or even cash and there are those people who prefer to give through PayPal. The amount varies from one time large gifts to the little ladies who may send a dollar or two each month. Every donation is appreciated and used to win souls to Christ.

The only paid positions in SOS Events are the small office staff. All others from the President of the ministry to volunteers who spend their own money many times for travel and even cost of events receive nothing from SOS Events except prayer and appreciation. There are a few missionaries who receive designated support and every penny goes directly to them.

Some of you who read this blog may be “turned off” by the subject of money but it does take money to function and win souls in today’s economy. If you have never given to SOS Events but would like to give, every donation large or small is appreciated and will be used to win people to the Lord. Go to the home page and click on the donate button or send via snail mail to SOS, P.O. Box 189, Dover, FL 33527.

If you cannot give financially you can do something even more needed. Pray everyday for the staff, volunteers and most of all for lost souls to be saved.

Matthew 6:21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

SOS Events Faithful Volunteers

July 14, 2022

“Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.” This is the US post office motto.

What does that have to do with SOS Events volunteers? They are so dedicated to the Lord’s work and winning souls that they go out in all kinds of weather.

The Plant City Flea Market is a great example. With Florida heat in the 90+ and humidity also in the high 90’s, faithful SOS Events volunteers are there every Wednesday.

This week 32 precious people made decisions to accept Jesus as their Savior. Praise the Lord! They would never have had the opportunity without the faithful volunteers.

Thank you to everyone who volunteers to work in a booth with SOS Events, not only in Florida but in many States in the USA.

And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. Galatians 6:9

Wednesday Blessings

July 7, 2022

The Lord blessed SOS Events volunteers once again at the Plant City Flea Market. 17 people accepted Jesus as their Savior yesterday.

Thank you faithful volunteers for going. It was extremely hot, temperatures in the 90’s but that did not stop them from doing what the Lord commanded. GO.

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Matthew 29:19

A Little Boy!

June 30, 2022

A little boy came up to one of the volunteers at the Freedom Festival at Fellowship Baptist Church in Thonotosassa, Fl, pointed to the table with the ABC’s of Salvation. He said “I want that.”

He had seen the “3 Things God Can Not Do” display board, but did not wait to talk to that volunteer.

Not understanding what the boy wanted one of the other volunteers told him that there was not anything to give him. Both volunteers did not know what he wanted.

He would not leave and again said, “I want that.” And pointed to the soul winning table.

Finally, the volunteer ask him, “Do you want Jesus in your heart.”

“Yes”, the little boy answered. After explaining to him that Jesus could forgive him, the boy prayed.

He was so excited that he jumped up from the table and ran off without even telling his name or information.

That little boy knew what he wanted and needed. Jesus tells us to let the little children to come to Him. We have to be in tune with children when they are ready to come to Jesus.

Mark 10:14But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

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

People Are Trusting Jesus in Michigan!

June 4, 2022

Friday, Saturday and Sunday are great opportunities for people to hear the gospel in Michigan. Yesterday, the SOS Events Team in Michigan had the privilege of leading over 20 people to accept Jesus as their Savior.

Please pray with us that the next two days will see many more people come to the Lord.


I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. I Timothy 2:1-4

Answers to Prayer!

SOS Events Ministry Leaders in Florida have been praying for new volunteers at the Plant City Flea Market, especially Bilingual people. Yesterday, a Hispanic Pastor and his family came by to help.

This event takes place every week and our prayer is that a different team will take one week a month on Wednesdays. God answered that prayer.

The team from Lakeland, Fl will do one week. Another man and his team will take a week, and the Pastor who visited yesterday will take the third week. That leaves the week left for our regular team. God answers prayer.

Not only that blessing but 31 people accepted Jesus as their Savior yesterday. God is great!

If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. John 15:7
