God is Faithful

June 9, 2015

As the ministry of SOS Events grows the blessings overflow and at the same time the burdens of the staff, volunteers, trainers and event workers seem to be increased also.

Many of our workers and volunteers are over retirement age and along with that comes the problems that is part of the aging process. Some have physical problems, illness and a few have financial concerns.

The younger generation has the challenge of trying to coordinate family, job, church and  working events for SOS Events.

The blessing to all is the faithfulness of our Savior the Lord Jesus, who never leaves or forsakes us and walks with us through trials. He also promised us wisdom and guidance when we follow Him. The blessings to all who are with SOS Events far outweigh all of our burdens. When we witness and see a lost soul come to trust Christ as Savior, see lives changed it is worth every hardship that comes our way.

So today when you pray please add the workers of SOS Events to your list. God knows each of us who has needs  and you will be blessed when you see the results published to answered prayers.

1 Corinthians 1:9 “God is faithful, by whom ye were called unto the fellowship of his Son Jesus Christ our Lord.”

God Directs

June 7, 2015

SOS Events ministry purchased a concession trailer a few years ago but never had the opportunity to use it as our schedule has been so busy.

Our Spanish Pastor Romero saw it and wanted it for his ministry. Every week his group goes to the Flea Market to win souls and this trailer will be a great asset to them.

They win more souls to the Lord in one week than 20 churches combined. Praise the Lord this trailer will now be used as was the intention several years ago. God truly directs the path of believers. It is a great blessing for SOS Events to partner with this soul winning church.

Proverbs 3:5-6. Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him,  and he shall direct thy paths.

  

Opportunities

June 6, 2015

Leslie, a home health nurse, came to the Curtis house to change the bandages on Tom’s ankle. As with all the others who have come she heard the gospel and she gladly accepted JESUS as her Saviour. 

What an opportunity Tom has had to witness everyday to a different person. We are so thankful that his wound is healing and hopefully he will be able to get back to his regular activities soon. In the meantime he will take advantage of all the opportunities that God gives him to tell others about the Lord.

Please continue to pray for his complete healing and also for the five people who have been saved though this trial.

Galatians 6:10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.

  

Praise The Lord 

June 5, 2015

Praise the Lord that the blog is up on the new website. Check out the interaction on the homepage. Pray with us at SOS EVENTS that many unsaved people will be curious about the “3 Things God Can Not Do” and be saved. Also, tell your friends to check it out. 

Psalms 106:1

Praise ye the Lord. O give thanks unto the Lord;

for he is good:

for his mercy endureth for ever.

Everyday is an Event

June 3, 2015

“Everyday you get up is an event.” This quote is from Tom Curtis.

SOS Events ministry is always looking for events to have the opportunity to set up a booth to witness. However, sometimes there may not be a organized gathering to go to. Should we as Christians just sit back and not witness? NO!!

Everyday, anywhere and everyone God puts in your path is an opportunity to witness. The grocery store, at an appointment, waiting in line to purchase something, a waitress when you go out to eat, a telephone conversation, saleman, or someone who comes to you door. All these are opportunities to witness.

Always carry Bible tracts in your pocket or purse. There is no excuse for a child of God not to tell others when God tells us in His Word to be witnesses. Also, depend upon the Holy Spirit to give you power and boldness. Then ask Him to lead you to a person who is ready to recieve JESUS.

All the examples that have been given of places to witness, there has actually been someone saved by a staff member or volunteer of SOS.

If you are fearful, inexperienced or need to know how to be a better witness contact SOS Events and someone on our staff will be happy to help you.

Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Four Saved in Columbus

June 1, 2015

Randy and Romona Thomas traveled to Ohio to work with a church at the “churchyard event” this past weekend. Four adults were saved and one of the couples are pictured below. SOS Events is blessed to have people willing to go wherever God leads them to win souls to Christ.

“Brandon and Amanda came to Christ, along with another couple, at Turning Point Church’s outreach event on Saturday in Columbus, Ohio.

It’s past time for our churches to reach out to their communities with the gospel! Be sure to tell others where ever you go.”

Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

Yolanda

May 29, 2015

SOS Events is blessed with people who have various gifts. Some are blessed with mechanical skills, some with organizational ability, some have the gift of teaching, a few preachers and evangelists. All who come with the ministry have a desire to win souls.

The newest member of the Florida team is Yolanda. Not only does she have a desire to win souls, she is bilingual and is translating SOS Events training materials into Spanish which will be a great tool to enlarge the growing Spanish ministry of SOS. She is a willing worker and will also be a part of Senior Servants who help with the monthly newsletter and tract ministry. Her first event was this week at the Plant City Flea Market where she had the opportunity to see souls come to JESUS. She is the lady on the left holding the small “3Things God Can Not Do” display board. The other lady in the photo is a new convert.

1 Corinthians 12:4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

  

Bilingual Blessings

May 28, 2015

Plant City flea Market is a great place to witness and win souls. In the summer when is is very hot in Florida the workers set up the display early, about 5:30 AM. As soon as it gets light people start to come to see what God Can Not Do at the booth. SOS Events is blessed to have a bilingual team tha works this flea market every week.

This week on Wednesday 14 people made decisions to follow JESUS. Praise the Lord! By 11 o’clock the temperature reaches in the 90’s and the team packs up until the next week. One of SOS bilingual (English and Spanish) is William, pictured here with a new convert.

Financial Blessings

May 27, 2015

iPads, smart phones and computers are a great part of our lifestyle in 2015. It would be difficult if not impossible to have growth in the ministry without modern technology. However, there is nothing like having a letter or card come via snail mail, especially from faithful supporters. SOS was blessed this past week to have a check come in from a couple who are not monthly supporters but give few times a year. This check a sizable amount and was especially needed. 

God supplies the need. He uses every person who gives. Sometimes it may be an envelope with a dollar or two, and the faithful supporters who give regularly at various amounts. SOS Event is blessed to have several supporters who have given since the ministry began in 2001 and some even gave to the founders even before the ministry was started.

This is an opportunity to say Thank You to all who give and have made SOS Events possible. You will have a reward in Heaven. Over 50,000 souls have made decisions for Christ since the ministry was founded in 2001.

If you have never given but would like to, SOS also does accept donations through PayPal. (Yes, we do use our modern devices to help SOS Events grow). Click on the donate button on the home page to contribute online.

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.
