Jesus told Peter and Andrew, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
But they are not the only ones who Jesus expects to “go fishing”.
It is every Christian’s responsibility to GO.
You can’t fish sitting at home, or going to church and talking about it.
You have to go where the fish are.
If you do not know where to go, or you don’t know how to catch fish (witnessing to men, women and children), SOS Events can teach you.
You can go to festivals, community events, yard sales, car shows, flea markets and other types of events. People who are lost are at these events!
That is where the “fish” are. Come join SOS and see how happy you will be when you start to obey Jesus, and He blesses you with many people you have “caught” to accept Jesus as their Savior.
Carolyn Curtis attended the Business Expo yesterday. What an opportunity to talk to people about SOS Events ministry.
She was able to give information about the ministry to several people who are not familiar with what SOS Events does. Also, actually witnessed to one of the vendors with the “3 Things God Can Not Do.”
Pray that God’s Word will bring salvation to this young man’s life.
I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. 1 Corinthians 3:6
Carolyn Curtis, cofounder of SOS Events Ministry, had opportunity to present to the Ladies Fellowship at Liberty Baptist Church in Gallatin, Tennessee.
A sweet group of women listened intently as Carolyn gave her testimony and then told about the simple way of presenting the Gospel using the “3 Things God Can Not Do”.
Praying for a new team in that part of Tennessee. Two events are planned in the next month.
Romans 10:14 – How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard?
Church-yard evangelism is one of the most powerful growth vehicles for any church, if done right. The problem is, most could be a great deal more effective than they are; think about any of these activities you have been involved in over the years at any church you have visited. Here is a list of activities / events commonly sponsored, or supported by churches, either near, or on their church property:
Yard sales
BBQ
Car Shows
Events for Children (games, rides, etc…)
Fall Festival
Egg Hunt
Fish Fry
There are many more different kinds of activities that could be listed. These events usually reflect the social fabric and interest of the sponsoring, or participating church. Many times these are planned fund raisers. However, the goals also typically evolve around introducing new people to the church through some form of interaction, with the hope of leading others into a relationship with Jesus Christ. Additional benefits include helping introduce existing Christians, new to the area, to your church; help them find a new church home. Other benefits include fellowship among participating church members , and exposure for the church in other indirect ways. Most would agree, if others accept Christ (souls saved) as their personal savior “at the event”, then this would be like having your cake, and eating it too… … a win-win-win. Praise the Lord! Any kind of church-yard evangelism can always be about seeing souls saved. In fact, why plan one if that’s not included? People need the Lord!
SOS Events is about showing others how they can come to expect a harvest of souls at almost any event. Tom Curtis often reminds others that it’s not him, his wife Carolyn and other SOS workers that save souls, but it’s faith in action based on their surrender to a relationship that allows Him to do His will. Write to info@sosevents.org, if you would like more information, or help with your event.
Psalm 72:13 He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy.
Does SOS Events Ministry have Teams around the world? NO! Is the Ministry reaching the world? YES! How?
The SOS Events Website has a blog daily. Every day people from around the world read that blog and have access to God’s Word from the Website.
Some Countries most of us have never heard of, North Mariana Island in the Pacific, St Kitts, Sri Lanka, Sierra Leone, Paraguay just to name a few of the many Countries that have read the things on the Website in the last week or two.
Please pray for these people. Many of them have no other way to get the gospel than on social media. Pray the Holy Spirit will touch their hearts and they will invite Jesus to be their Savior.
And He said unto them, go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Mark 16:15
As every man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. 1Peter 4:10
What do I love?
What am I good at?
What does the world need?
These are good questions to ask yourself when seeking the Lord’s Will about serving Him.
Every Christian has talents the Lord has given to you. There are a verity of gifts. Serving the Lord is a joy.
Do you love to write, sing, serve others or have people in your home? All these things and more can be used to bring others to know Jesus.
Are you good at teaching, speaking, working with children or the elderly? God can use the things you are good at to further the gospel.
What the world needs is Jesus. We are called to be witnesses. It is not a suggestion, it is a command. Use your love and your talent to serve the Lord.
1 Peter 3:15 – But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
Do you know the questions to ask when witnessing to someone about how to get to Heaven?
Questions are so important. We can tell others about Jesus, how he paid for their sins when He died on the cross. He was buried and 3 days later He arose. Then we do not go any farther.
We have to ask the right question to lead them to ask forgiveness for their sin and invite Jesus to be their Savior.
Unsure of how to do that? What questions do you need to ask?
SOS Events Ministry can teach you how to ask the right questions and lead people to the Lord in a simple, nonconfrontational way. We have the answers to the questions.
You can come to one of SOS Events Trainings in person. If that is not possible, training is also on the Website.
Learn to be an effective witness and go and tell others the Good News!
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15
Why is it important to study God’s Word? The Bible gives us the answer in one verse.
SOS Events offers a wonderful opportunity on the website to study with Porter Barrington’s Bible study. If you have not done this study it is a good place to start.
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.
