Bay life Car Show

May 30, 2023

Memorial Day weekend, the SOS Events volunteers were ready to witness at the Bay Life Car Show in Brandon, Florida.

God sent people to the booth and 5 of them trusted Jesus as their Savior!

Praise the Lord for those who were saved and thanks to the volunteers who took time on a busy weekend to serve the Lord.

Romans 10:9That 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.

SOS Events Blessings

May 16, 2023

One of the SOS Events great blessings is the volunteers.

In Plant City, Fl every week is the Flea Market. For many years Alice Thomas, got up early on Wednesdays, got to the event to set up and worked for several hours before taking everything down to come to the office. She did have a faithful few who helped, William and Richard but prayed for more volunteers who would be willing to help.

God has answered. SOS Events now have several teams who have volunteered to go once a month and set up and take down. Almost every week is filled. Some of the volunteers speak Spanish which was desperately needed.

God has blessed with people receiving the message and asked Jesus to change their lives every week. Praise the Lord for answering prayer.

Thank you to all the volunteers who are helping at the weekly Flea Market as well as other events in the area. May God bless each one.

Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. 1 Corinthians 15:58

Alabama SOS Team Blessings!

May 9, 2023

Members from 6 area churches shared the gospel at the Moulton Strawberry Festival in Alabama. Seventy-nine people came for counseling on salvation. Thirty-one were for assurance and 48 prayed to receive Jesus as their personal savior. Thanks to the city of Moulton for planning a great festival.

Here are two teenagers who prayed to receive Jesus as their personal savior at the Gardendale Magnolia Festival. We also counseled with those who had doubts, providing assurance of salvation.

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

A message from Ann at the Plant City Flea Market. “A family came by the booth this morning and shared that they had gotten saved through the Flea Market ministry a few years ago and now attend church. They were Hispanic. So encouraging!”

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

Joy and sadness In Alabama!

April 17, 2023
Mark 11:24Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

Last night at the Clay County Fair in Ashland 3 young ladies ages 14,14 and 16 gave their lives to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Oh how the Angels rejoice over souls being saved.

As I watched them walk away my heart was heavy at the world they are having to grow up in and how hard it is to shine your light for all to see with so much darkness. I have to know God has His hand on them and will see them through .

As I write this post this afternoon I am heartbroken over the senseless loss of life at a birthday party for a 16 year old last night in a small town just down the road from us that took the lives of 4 teens and injured so many more.

I know this is not my usual after an event post but I just pray that every one reading this and their kids have made Jesus Christ the Lord and Savior of their lives because we truly don’t know if we’ll have another opportunity to tell them that Jesus is our only hope.

Beth and Wes Walker are Team Leader in Alabama. They oversee many of the events in Alabama. This report was was written by them this weekend.

SOS Events is thrilled about the souls that are saved at events, but at the same time we grieve over the evil events in our country that take the lives of our children.

Our Country needs prayer. SOS Events need prayer for our staff, team leaders and volunteers. Please pray for more people to be saved. We can change America one soul at a time.

Not Giving Up!

Ginger and Bob training volunteers.

SOS training at First Baptist of Nesbit, Mississippi. Bob and Ginger Hansill, SOS Events Trainers and Team Leaders, went from Florida to Mississippi last weekend. Their goal was to train new volunteers to present the gospel using the “3 Things God Can Not Do”.

This church has a great opportunity to reach people for Christ. God blessed the church with property where they have state of the art soccer fields. The whole community comes to play soccer on these fields. The tournaments were scheduled.

53 people came to the training, excited to use their new knowledge to win people to the Lord on the weekend.

Then the storm hit! Tornado warnings, destruction and even death in parts of Mississippi. The soccer fields were flooded and all the games cancelled.

They are not giving up! Everything is rescheduled and these volunteers are ready to go! Pray for the events that will take place this week and in many weeks and months ahead. This will be an ongoing venue to win souls.

Rodeos in Alabama

March 28, 2023

Dwayne Banks, SOS Events Leader in Alabama takes the “3 Things God Can Not Do“ to Rodeos.

The last 2 weekends the Lord blessed with 4 salvations at the first one and 10 people accepted Jesus as their Savior at the 2nd Rodeo.

What a blessing to have many different venues to present the gospel to people who may not ever attend a church service.

Rodeos, fairs, yard sales, community events and many others. God is where people are. We praise Him for the opportunities to go and tell.

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

On Saturday SOS Events Ministry held the 5th Annual Celebration. It was a great success. Music by Danny Riddle and then the Sunshine State Quartet. Food, fun, photo booths and many other activities celebrated what God has done through SOS Events the past year.

All praise and glory belongs to the Lord for His faithfulness bringing people into the knowledge of salvation through SOS Events Ministry.

It was a joy to see many new faces at the event this year. People who have worked winning others to the Lord for the first time this past year. Some people came who are interested in learning more about SOS Events and how to witness at events.

God truly has blessed this ministry and we do celebrate all He has done.

O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Psalm 95:1

Praise the Lord for His faithfulness. Bringing people to the SOS Events booth to hear the gospel and be saved.

387 people, made decisions at the Strawberry Festival this year. Hallelujah what a Savior!

Thank everyone who made this possible. The volunteers, decorators, office staff and others who worked long hours. Thanks also, for the parking places so the volunteers did not have to pay for parking.

What a great event! Now on to more opportunities to tell others about the love of Jesus.

O come, let us sing unto the LORD: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Psalms 95:1
