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.

Psalms 33:8Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
On the Lord’s Day, He deserves all worship and praise. We serve an awesome God.
Awesome is a word we attribute to God and we should. It also has become a word that we use when we like something or feel that a person is extra special in our lives.
Sometimes a Christian will admonish another for using the word awesome if they are not speaking of God, but the dictionary does not define that word to describe God only.
The Bible does not even have the word awesome in it and there are only three verses in the whole Bible that has the word awe. Let us love one another and not be critical of another Christian. We are to love the Lord with all our heart and our neighbor as ourselves.
So today let us worship our “Awesome” God in spirit and in truth.

Yesterday, Tom got stopped by a policeman. We wondered what we were doing wrong. We were not speeding, we were obeying all the traffic rules we thought. He told us to pull over and stop and we obeyed.
Thinking he would give us a ticket for something, we were concerned, however, he came up and said, ” Sir, do you know you have no taillights?”
We did not know. He checked Tom’s license and said, “Go and get them fixed.”
We immediately went to Pep Boys and the lights were fixed right away.
The point in telling this story is to say that we appreciate our police officers. In a time that some people are causing riots because policemen are doing their jobs, we law abiding citizens need to stand up for our policemen.
We did not get the officer’s name but thank him for helping us to maybe avoid an accident.
1 Timothy 2:2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

As founders of SOS Events Ministry, Tom and I are so grateful to the faithful workers and volunteers who continue to do the work of the ministry when we are not able to be in the office or at events because of Tom’s health problems.
God’s work continues, souls are getting saved and the ministry is growing and will continue to flourish because of the great staff, Board of Directors, office workers and volunteers that God has used to keep everything running smoothly. A good example is the 17 souls that made decisions to follow JESUS at the Plant City Flea Market on Wednesday. Pictured below is Randy with 2 boys who were saved at the Flea Market.
2 Timothy 2:2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

Thanks to all of you who prayed for SOS Events to find Spanish Bibles at a reasonable cost. One case (24) was delivered yesterday and a gentleman donated funds for that case and 2 more. We are thankful to God’s people for supplying the need.
The Spanish ministry in Florida is growing. Pastor Romono and his group are winning many souls to the Lord every weekend and on Wednesdays the Plant City Flea market has many Hispanics saved also.
Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Pastor Romero with 2 Spanish converts. The Spanish ministry with SOS is flourishing under the direction of Pastor Romero. He and his team go to the Lakeland Flea Market on Sundays. In the last 2 weeks over 30 people have been saved.
He reported yesterday that a man offered to pay the fee for the Flea Market each Sunday and another offered to buy 3 cases of Spanish Bibles. Answers to prayer. There is also a need for funds for a concession trailer for the Hispanic ministry. Please pray for this dedicated Pastor as he works to win souls.
Matthew 21:22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

It is so exciting when the mail comes in after the monthly newsletter has gone out. Usually there are many envelopes ready to be opened from SOS Events supporters.
This month there has been many blessings in the mail. First the regular supporters who are faithful to send an offering every month. Some of them have been supporting SOS Events since the ministry was founded in 2001. The faithfulness of these supporters is so appreciated. Without regular support the ministry would not have grown to what it is today and would not be able to continue.
Then there are people who love to give to projects. If there is a need, these people like to designate to the need. This month there were several mentioned. Funds for materials for building a paint shop, a new printer, traveling expenses for missionaries to go to the Talledega Races, individual support for new missionaries and several other requests.
As the mail keeps coming in many of the special requests have been met. One family sent an additional offering along with their monthly support through PayPal. A church donated a used printer that is better than any SOS Events could afford. Another person sent a check to help with traveling expenses. One special needs supporter gave SOS access to their account with a printing company to get banners printed for our missionaries. (A need that was not even mentioned in the newsletter). One of the local pastors donated some new lumber to help with the paint shop project. God uses people to meet the needs of the ministry and first Praise the Lord for His faithfulness. Then a big Thank You to every supporter who love to see souls come to Christ and gives. Every gift is a blessing and is used with the goal of seeing more people come to know JESUS.
If you would like to give click the donate button on the home page and all the information is there for you. God loves a cheerful giver.
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.
