Dale and Dorothy Brown are SOS Events leaders and good friends of the ministry from Alabama. Dale is on the Board of Directors of SOS Events, they both have worked, supported and prayed for SOS since it began in 2001. This is a picture from the weekend where they along with many other volunteers from Alabama traveled to Pensacola, Florida and there at an event had 20 decisions for Christ.
1 Corinthians 3:9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.
Eastmont Baptist Church in Alabama holds an Event Called country Country every year in September. They have free food, a concert and rides and games for the kids. SOS Alabama team has a booth and this year there were 3 decisions for Christ on Sunday.
Churchyard Events are important as God always blesses with souls.if your church is having an event that is attended by your community it is a perfect time to see souls saved. Many people will not come on a Sunday morning but they will come for fun, free food and activities for the children. What about you church? If you are having an event, don’t use time and money without giving your community opportunity to be saved. SOS Events will be happy to help you and provide training and materials for your event.

Proverbs 11:30 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise.
New events are being added to the SOS EVENTS calendar for the September to December busy season. We are thankful for the opportunities God gives us to win souls. Please pray for the workers and the lost that they will be saved.
You can have a part in the blessings. Pray, give and participate. There is always room for more events and more volunteers. SOS Events needs you to help in any way you can. Lost souls are waiting to hear the gospel.
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? and how shall they hear without a preacher?
Sometimes we are disappointed when only one person repents and gets saved at an event that SOS Events participates in. The effort to go, set up a canopy, get workers, pray, prepare, pay for and all the things that must be accomplished before the event even starts, then after that only one soul.
This is what happened on Friday night this week in Pennsylvania at an event. Then we remember that God is in control and the joy in Heaven over this one person is taking place. We do not know how God will use this person in the future. So today we also rejoice in this one soul that made a decision to follow Christ. All the work and effort put in by SOS Events volunteers is worth that one person and they will be rewarded for faithfulness because God looks at our heart.
Faith Rider Fred and his crew at Sixth Street Baptist in Alex City this past Sunday for a great SOS Volunteer training! Looking forward to what God has in store for their next upcoming trainings and joining them for the Lineville Swap Meet on Nov. 5&6. Praise the Lord!
Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.
On Saturday in Alabama there were 7 decisions for Christ at the SOS Booth at Dexter Avenue King Memorial Baptist Church’s Back to School Talent Show and Cookout. PTL!!
Ephesians 1:6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved.
Patty Mills (on the far left) pictured here with the original Alabama SOS Events team, reported that the now expanded Alabama team has over 30 events between now and November. Wonderful opportunities to win souls to Christ in Alabama. Please keep all of the events in your prayers. SOS Events busiest season is in the Fall all over the Eastern USA.
Luke 14:23 And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.
“If we understand what lies ahead for those who do not know Christ, there will be a sense of urgency in our witness.” – David Jeremiah
Witnessing is not a calling or a gift, it is a command. People around us are dying without Christ and we have excuses why we do not witness and win souls. We must not let an opportunity to witness pass without telling them about Jesus. Their eternal lives depend upon it.
Acts 10:42 And he commanded us to preach unto the people, and to testify that it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of quick and dead.
Tom Curtis, founder of SOS Events Ministry, kept a daily journal with prayer requests and his thoughts about family, friends and Christian living. These journals are a blessing as we now have in his own handwriting his prayers and goals for the ministry.
In a journal from the year 2000, before SOS Events was founded, there were two words he used to describe a successful Christian, especially a soul winner. They must be humble and committed. Traits that he displayed in his own life.
Let us take a lesson from a man who loved the Lord with all his heart and not only wrote encouraging words but lived them daily.
James 4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
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.
SOS Events main goal is winning people to the Lord and we always rejoice when souls get saved at events. There is another blessing that causes excitment and joy. When Christians who have never won anyone to the Lord or have not had witnessing as a priority in their lives come to SOS Events to be trained and go to an event, they see how God blesses their effort and people get saved.
There is an old quotation: “Give a Man a Fish, and You Feed Him for a Day. Teach a Man To Fish, and You Feed Him for a Lifetime.”
That is so true when soul winning. As individuals each team member can witness but when we teach others to be witnesses the training lasts them for a lifetime and more people will have the opportunity to be saved.
Mark 1:17 And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men.
