Taladega Races

May 3, 2015

SOS Events booth at Talladega Races in Alabama. People crowding around to find out how they can have 2 birthdays. Two girls are sitting at the table on the right hearing the gospel, and Randy is taking pictures of 3 people. A picture is worth a thousand words and you see the activity around a SOS booth in this photo.

Please IMG_2240pray for SOS team today as the race will take place. Last opportunity to win souls at the races. The the Priddy’s and Thomas’s will be on the road and will need prayers for safety as they return to Florida and the Alabama team will need much needed rest as they prepare for a new workweek after their hard work preparing for this event. Final results and more pictures will follow in the next day or two. Praise the Lord for His faithfulness. Many souls are saved at the Talladega Races. God is the One who draws people to the booth and He gives the increase.

I Corinthians 3:7 So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

 

April 30, 2015

Today 3 SOS Events missionaries will leave from Florida to go to Alabama to help with all the busy activities there. This weekend they will be at the Talladega races to win souls. Also, there is a yard sale and the Alabama team has a booth at the Harley Davidson store in Dothan. At least one biker has been saved at that event.

Please pray for all SOS team members that have events this weekend. Many travel and need prayer for safety. Especially pray for souls to be saved.

Matthew 9:38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

SOS Spanish Ministry

April 26, 2015

Pastor Romero with 2 Spanish converts. The Spanish ministry with SOS is flourishing under the direction of Pastor Romero. He and his team go to the Lakeland Flea Market on Sundays. In the last 2 weeks over 30 people have been saved.

He reported yesterday that a man offered to pay the fee for the Flea Market each Sunday and another offered to buy 3 cases of Spanish Bibles. Answers to prayer. There is also a need for funds for a concession trailer for the Hispanic ministry. Please pray for this dedicated Pastor as he works to win souls.

Matthew 21:22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
 

Traveling Blessings

April 24, 2015

  
Glenn and Dena Priddy, SOS Events newest missionary couple, have returned from a trip to Virginia. They had many wonderful blessings as they traveled.

Sign on the back window of their car was seen by hundreds of people as they drove the highways and one man called their cell phone to ask what the “3 Thing God Can Not Do” are. He was already a Christian and told them to keep up the good work.

23 CHRISTIANS came to the training that they conducted in Virginia. A new place for soul winning for SOS Events.

One of the couples at that training live in Pennsylvania and took information to their Pastor about SOS Events. That couple resides in Florida in the winter and wants to help at the Strawberry Festival next year.

Several of SOS Events missionaries travel and need prayer for safety and  blessings. Dena needs prayer as she is facing back surgery in the next few months, but pain has not stopped this dedicated couple from witnessing for the Lord. She postponed surgery until after this Virginia trip and the first week in May they will travel to Alabama to witness at the Talledega Races.

Every Christian should love the Lord and have a burden for the lost that Glenn and Dena have. They are faithful witnesses.

2 Timothy 2:2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

Faithful Volunteers

April 18, 2015

 A picture is worth 1000 words the saying goes. Picture was taken this week at the Plant City, Florida Flea Market.

Eighteen souls were saved this week. SOS Events Ministry is blessed to have faithful men and women who volunteer for events. Over 800 souls have been saved at events since January 1st.

 

Giving

April 10, 2015

It is so exciting when the mail comes in after the monthly newsletter has gone out. Usually there are many envelopes ready to be opened from SOS Events supporters.

This month there has been many blessings in the mail. First the regular supporters who are faithful to send an offering every month. Some of them have been supporting SOS Events since the ministry was founded in 2001. The faithfulness of these supporters is so appreciated. Without regular support the ministry would not have grown to what it is today and would not be able to continue.

Then there are people who love to give to projects. If there is a need, these people like to designate to the need. This month there were several mentioned. Funds for materials for building a paint shop, a new printer, traveling expenses for missionaries to go to the Talledega Races, individual support for new missionaries and several other requests.

As the mail keeps coming in many of the special requests have been met. One family sent an additional offering along with their monthly support through PayPal. A church donated a used printer that is better than any SOS Events could afford. Another person sent a check to help with traveling expenses. One special needs supporter gave SOS access to their account with a printing company to get banners printed for our missionaries. (A need that was not even mentioned in the newsletter). One of the local pastors donated some new lumber to help with the paint shop project. God uses people to meet the needs of the ministry and first Praise the Lord for His faithfulness. Then a big Thank You to every supporter who love to see souls come to Christ and gives. Every gift is a blessing and is used with the goal of seeing more people come to know JESUS.

If you would like to give click the donate button on the home page and all the information is there for you. God loves a cheerful giver.

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

Faithful Servant

April 2, 2015

Joy is one of the charter members of SOS Senior Servants. Every First Thursday of the month she along with 15-20 ladies come to help with projects for the ministry. In this picture she is counting tracts to put in baggies for distribution. As the ministry grows and more work needs to be done Joy and the other ladies are very much appreciated. Please pray for Joy and all our Senior Servants as they do have problems. Health is always an issue as we get older, but these ladies are faithful servants. 

Luke 19:17  And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.

 

Churchyard Event

March 29, 2015

One of the most successful places to win people to the Lord is at an event held on church property. The two best time of year to hold a churchyard event is Easter time in the spring and Halloween in the fall.

The church provides for children an annual egg hunt and each year the crowds grow. Yesterday an “egg”stravaganza took place at a church near Brandon, Fl. 

It was an exciting event. Several church members came to SOS training and worked in the booth and Alice one of SOS missionaries went to oversee the event. 34 decisions were made, both children and adults.

The best thing about a churchyard event is that the converts are already on the property. They know where the church is, they have met church members who showed friendliness and they get an invitation to church. Also, they have filled out a decision card with name, address and age so the church has a record of their salvation and can visit the convert and family in their home.

If your church has events on the property and would like more information email info@sosevents.org or call the office at 813-494-7512.

Acts 2:47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

Reason for Rejoicing

March 26, 2015

Rejoice! 18 more people will be in Heaven because God blesses faithful witnesses. Plant City Flea Market is bustling this time of year on Wednesday mornings. SOS Events volunteers are there just as the sun is coming up. Yesterday, eighteen people walked by the SOS booth, stopped, heard the gospel and trusted JESUS as their Savior.

There is rejoicing. The new converts are joyful, the soul winner is thrilled and even the Angels in Heaven rejoice also. God gives the increase. One sure cure for discouragement is to win someone to Christ.

Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain. Philippians 2:16
