SOS Events Ministry usually does not ask the Pastors to volunteer at events because of their busy schedules, however, when a Pastor has a heart for seeing souls saved, then go to an event it is an extra blessing.

Pastors look after their flock. That is you and me. They look for lost souls, they bring comfort when we are sick or hurt, they keep us from getting into sin through their preaching.
Pastors who love Jesus and look to Him for help and guidance, they want their sheep to follow Him. Pray for your pastor today!
