Strawberry Festival in Plant City, Florida has surpassed the half way mark! Five more days to go.
There have been 120 decisions up until yesterday! Praise the Lord!
Please join me in prayer for the rest of this event, that people will be saved, volunteers will be filled with the spirit, and that the remaining shifts will be filled.
We still have empty opportunities for volunteers, especially the evening shifts and all day on Sunday.
Some of the office staff went to the vendor appreciation dinner at the Plant City Strawberry Festival last evening.
Every year the vendors are blessed with a great meal and a big strawberry shortcake.
SOS Events has been blessed to have a booth in the festival for over 20 years. Over 6000 people have trusted Jesus as their Savior.
The festival starts Thursday and we still have some vacant slots for volunteers. If you have been trained or would like a quick training, and want to sign up to have a part in this great opportunity, please call the home office today. 813-494-7512.
God will bless you as you obey the great commission. Go and tell.
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. Mark 16:15
Jesus gave His followers a clear mission—to go, to teach, and to reach others with the hope of the Gospel. The Great Commission was not only for the disciples long ago; it is for each of us today. Every conversation, every smile, and every act of kindness becomes an opportunity to reflect Christ’s love.
As SOS Events Ministry prepares to serve at the Strawberry Festival, this is more than volunteering—it is ministry. When you greet visitors, assist families, or simply offer encouragement, you are living out the command of Jesus to “go.” You become a light in a place where someone may need hope, prayer, or direction.
You do not go alone. Jesus promised, “I am with you alway.” He goes before you, works through you, and touches hearts because of your willingness to serve.
Next week, as the festival begins, consider answering His call. Your hands can serve, your words can encourage, and your presence can point someone to Christ. The harvest is ready—and God is calling willing servants.
Will you 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: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” Matthew 28:19&20
Bob and Ginger Hansill opened their home for a SOS Events training. This was special as John, Pastor of Garden Grove Church in Winter Haven, Florida, along with Richard drove to Lakeland to be trained to do events.
Sometimes there are many people at a training and other times one or two. Every trading is important. These 2 men can start a whole new Florida Team and many more opportunities for people to be saved.
Please pray for them as well as SOS Events trainers. Time is short and people need salvation.
We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation. 2 Corinthians 6:1&2
We never know what a day will bring. Sometimes we we have plans and they get changed. Sometimes we have no plans and then something comes up that we did not expect. The key is be flexible.
Always be ready to change your plans if necessary. God has a plan for our lives and he wants to use us. If we are not willing to follow Him immediately, we can miss out on a great blessing.
Carolyn Curtis, cofounder of SOS Events Ministry, had the opportunity to speak to a wonderful group of women at Orange Park Baptist Church on Saturday.
It is always a blessing to share her story with others. Giving opportunity for them to accept Jesus as their Savior, and Christians to serve the LORD.
In this photo she reminds the audience that time is short. We must use the time wisely and use every opportunity to tell others about Jesus.
See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Ephesians 5:15 & 16
This time of year, SOS Events has the opportunity to train many people how to go to events and witness in a simple, no confrontational way, using the “3 Things God Can Not Do”.
This past weekend there was a Training at Church on the Rock in Plant City, Florida.
There are other Trainings scheduled for this week. If you live in the area and would like to join the Florida Team, please contact the office 813-494-7512 for information or to schedule a Training convenient for you.
A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understanding shall attain unto wise counsels. Proverbs 1:5
Every time our phone rings it gives us an opportunity to witness or encourage someone. We get calls that are very pleasant, from family or friends. We can use these calls to encourage and pray for each other. It’s a great way to stay in touch with loved ones far away.
We also get calls that are extremely annoying, like a solicitor trying to get us to donate or buy something we don’t want or need. Our first reaction is to hang up..but wait. It may be an opportunity to witness to that person. They may listen or they will hang up on us. Then we have accomplished something. A seed planted or we have gotten rid of an annoying call. Let’s use every opportunity that God gives us to bring honor to Him.
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.
