October is the busiest time of year for SOS Events because there are so many events that take place.
Fall Festivals, Halloween, Talledega Races in Alabama, Harvest Hayride in New Jersey, Yard Sales and Craft Shows plus the regular weekly or monthly events that continue regularly. Our staff and workers would appreciate your prayers.
As you can see the opportunities for witnessing and soul winning are limitless. The Bible says the laborers are few. If you have a burden for lost souls you can get involved where you are. Go to the donate/contact page and give your information and note that you want to know more and you will have the opportunity to become a great witness for the Lord. The training is FREE.
Matthew 9:37-38 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

Are you positive or negative?
“Positive: thinking about the good qualities of someone or something: thinking that a good result will happen: hopeful or optimistic.” Webster’s dictionary
“Negative: thinking about the bad qualities of someone or something: thinking that a bad result will happen: not hopeful or optimistic.” Webster’s dictionary
We are Christians and should be positive not negative. The Bible says that we are the light of the world. A flashlight is a good example, put a battery in a flashlight negative to negative and we are still in the dark. BUT put that battery in negative to positive and we have light.
There is a man who has severe health problems but never complains. He is always positive and makes everyone around him positive. Christians and unbelievers like to be around him because he gives them hope. Usually the nonbelievers become believers because of his good attitude.
Be a positive influence in our dark world today.
Matthew 5:14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

“The greatest ability is dependability.” Dr. Bob Jones
Sometimes being dependable is not easy. Weekly Flea Markets are a good example. Wake up really early to go and set up the display, weather can be a problem,(heat, cold, damp, humidity), waiting for that first person to talk to you. Maybe even rejection, 52 weeks a year. Sounds hard? It is until God steps in and brings the first person that has been waiting to hear the Gospel. Yesterday 12 souls came to the Lord at the Plant City Flea Market.
That is the reason dependability is so important. Alice, Randy, William are dependable and gladly go each week to that event. God will honor their dependability. He is the One who brings the souls, it is our responsibility to be faithful and dependable.
Jesus said in Matthew 25:21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou 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.

On Tuesdays the office staff of SOS Events has a short meeting to discuss the needs of the ministry and the personal prayer requests of the staff and others who may have called or emailed a prayer requests.
Yesterday, God answered two prayers within 3 hours of that meeting. Diana, our office manager, was concerned about her daughter Dana who has a busy schedule. Dana is in nursing school and has some tests scheduled for today and tomorrow. The concern was that the house Dana and her husband purchased did not close last week when it was scheduled and the closing kept getting changed. It seemed like it was going to interfere with Dana’s tests. Within two hours of the prayers in God’s perfect timing Dana called and the closing was before the day was out. Also, there were no classes yesterday. Perfect timing.
Tom, founder of SOS Events, has been praying for more opportunities to teach evangelism to students of all ages. The prayer request was brought before the Lord in our meeting and in the early afternoon a man, who Tom had only met briefly several years ago, came into the office and offered an opportunity to teach evangelism at a Bible Institute for the spring semester. There will be more about this awesome answer to prayer in the near future when the plans are finalized.
God answers prayer. He is there waiting for us to ask and delights in answering the prayers of His children.
Matthew 21:22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

Quote by Adrian Rogers
“One nation under God, or one nation under greed?”
One of the problems of our nation is that we have replaced our worship of God into a nation that goes after riches. Sadly even many Christians have fallen into the trap.
Bigger houses, better cars, more money, fancy churches and the true worship of God is put aside because we don’t have time, we are too busy making money and trying to get ahead than to take time to read the Bible and pray everyday. If we want our nation to get back to God it has to start with each of us giving the Lord Jesus the time and worship He desires and deserves.
Psalms 33:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

Two new things are on the SOS Events website that you may have missed. The “3 Things God Can Not Do” is in Spanish on the menu tab Espanol. That has been something that has been needed as the Spanish Division of the ministry has expanded greatly in the last year.
Another addition is “Tom’s Testimony” on the Testimony page. If you have not heard or read how SOS Events founder was saved it is worth a few minutes of your time to read his testimony. God has used this story all over the USA to reach people for Jesus Christ.
To God be the Glory for the new blessings that He pours out on SOS Events.
Psalms 68:19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation.

John R. Rice was tremendous preacher many years ago. He wrote songs, books, and tracts. One of his books is “Prayer, Asking and Receiving.” The following quote is one way to help you know how to pray and get your prayers answered.
If you surrender yourself, and do not rush, but meditate on the Word of God, you will find prayer forming in your heart. It is a prayer inspired by the Holy Spirit, a prayer that God will be pleased to hear. John R. Rice
Philippians 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Shelby, the Curtis’s granddaughter, had an opportunity to share with her classmates the “3 Things God Can Not Do” at Show and Tell in her third grade class.
She told them about SOS Events Ministry and finished with the statement, “I want to be just like my Grandpa”
Young children can be a witness for the Lord especially using the tools provided for them by SOS Events.
Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
