Strawberry Festival in Plant City, FL

January 22, 2020

SOS Events largest event in Florida is the Strawberry Festival in Plant City. It is coming up quickly. In the past 17 years the SOS Events volunteers have worked 4 hour shifts, but this year the shifts are only 3 hours long. This is a big change. Four more workers every day are needed and addition tickets will need to be purchased.

You can help. Pray for volunteers and that many people will be saved, If you live in the area or will be near Plant City during the Festival, volunteer for a 3 hour shift. If you cannot volunteer donations for extra tickets would be greatly appreciated. Call the office 813-494-7512 or go to SignUpGenius to get the time you want to work. All volunteers must be trained. Several classes are available.

Matthew 9:38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.

Cheerful Giving

December 29, 2018

December 29, 2018. The year is almost over. This year has been a great year for SOS Events Ministry. God has blessed with almost 3000 souls coming to Christ. New Leaders have been trained and are serving the Lord with SOS Events. The ministry is expanding into new areas.

Those of you who follow the blog are a blessing and there have been many responses from people asking for prayer, using the Bible studies and other materials offered. People from over 92 Countries have been on the blog and the gospel has gone out worldwide.

SOS Events is a faith based ministry that is supported by churches and individuals. Only our office staff are paid, all other workers are volunteers. 

There are some people who are looking for a tax deduction at the end of the year and SOS Events ministry is a great investment for your treasure in Heaven. All gifts are tax deductible. 

God loves a cheerful giver and if you would like to contribute click on donate on the right, that takes you to the donate page. Then click on “I’d love to donate”. Every gift is appreciated and is used for the salvation of souls.

The ministry could not function without money but the greatest gift you can give is to PRAY for SOS Events. Pray for more salvations, growth for the newly saved, strength, wisdom and good health for the workers. Most of all power of the Holy Spirit to continue the ministry the Lord has given.

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.

Goals for SOS Events

May 29, 2018

My birthday is in a few days and this year, I’m asking for donations to Event Evangelism Inc. and I hope you’ll consider contributing as a way to celebrate with me. Every little bit will help me reach my goal. My desire is that 10,000 people will be saved this year at SOS Events Ministry (Event Evangelism, Inc.) events. We have reached 70,000 and because I will be 80 I would like to have 80,000 souls saved by the end of 2018. It does take finances to reach people and thank you in advance for contributing. Carolyn Curtis, Cofounder of SOS Events

Blessings

September 12, 2015

A special thank you to all who follow the blog. This week there were many new responses to various posts.

One of the blessings is a Pastor who wants to get into events using the “3 Things God Can Not Do” method of soul winning at events. This could result in a new area in the USA going to Flea Markets where hundreds of people get saved each week in the different cities where SOS Events has booth space.

Another blessing is a training that will take place in just a few hours with a Spanish Pastor and six others who will be going to new events in Florida. The Spanish ministry is expanding and in a short time the “3 Things” will be on the website in Spanish as well as English. Hopefully that will result in more salvations and more Spanish workers.

If you have not explored the home page there is much to give you a blessing there. The Bible studies by Porter Barrington can help you grow in your walk with Jesus.

Please keep SOS Events in your prayers. If there is anything that we can help you with please contact us.

1 Corinthians 1:4 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

Serving Our Savior with SOS Events

September 9, 2015

SOS Events is blessed to have faithful workers who help with the ministry. This week two of our volunteers who have been away for awhile are back to continue their important tasks at SOS.

David is a valuable asset to the ministry. He makes all the displays we use to win souls to Christ. He cuts them, sands them, paints them and puts them together. He also does general maintenance around the property and is willing to do whatever is necessary to keep buildings and equipment in working order.

Beverly is a volunteer who works in the office. There is always computer data entry to do in the growing ministry, as well as mailing, correspondence, and material for training and soul winning. She has been missed and we are thankful to have her return after a long absence.

Both these wonderful workers were caregivers for their mates who are now with the Lord. Pray for them as they are welcomed back to Serving Our Savior with SOS.

Romans 12:11 Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord;

What is God Doing?

September 5, 2015

Do you ever wonder what God is doing in your life? Tom and Carolyn decided to go on a 2 day short trip to visit friends about 90 miles away from their home.They left about 12:30 PM and expected to be at their destination at about 3 PM. Driving on one of Florida’s toll roads a driver in front of them was driving about 55 in a 70 mile per hour speed zone. Making sure it was safe to pass Tom pulled out and a large metal pipe was right in front of him. Couldn’t turn to the left or the right as there were cars on both sides. So he tried to avoid it by straddling it in the center, but it flew up and hit the oil line or oil pan and soon the engine was smoking. Thankfully, the next toll booth was less than 2 miles away. Tom pulled into the employees parking lot after paying the toll and came to a stop. All the oil was drained out. 

One of the employees called for help but 8 hours later Tom and Carolyn still were waiting for that Road Warrior to come.

Tom does have health issues and this was the first time in 18 months that he was well enough to attempt even a short trip. Finally, their son in law, Rick, came to the rescue another 2 hours later with a tow dolly to get the car and Tom and Carolyn home. Hopefully ths car can be repaired.

11:15 PM Safe at home. Counting their blessings. Many worst things could have have happened. They could have hit another car, the pipe could have ruptured the gas tank and caused explosion, or Tom could have had a heart attack from the trama of the stress, but God in His loving care protected them from serious consequences.

What was the purpose of this adventure? 

Only God knows and that is where trusting the Lord in all circumstances comes into your life. All things do work together for good, but we may not see it for many days, weeks, months or years to come.
Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
