Jesus is knocking on the door of many hearts today. If you do not know Him, He wants to come into your life as your Savior. If you do know Him, He wants you to be a witness for Him and tell others how they can have Him in their lives.
Watch the training videos on the home page and you will find help for both of these situations.

Jesus Is Knocking
August 28, 2014Soul Winning
August 26, 2014“I would rather win souls than be the greatest king or emperor on earth; I would rather win souls than be the greatest general that ever commanded an army; I would rather win souls than be the greatest poet, or novelist, or literary man who ever walked the earth. My one ambition in life is to win as many as possible.”
~ R. A. Torrey

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.
Tract Testimony
August 25, 2014Several months ago, I spoke to my daughter’s Sunday School Class and gave each class member a few tracts. Yesterday one of the women in the class told my daughter this testimony.
“While out shopping, I saw two men sitting on a bench. They looked like they had some time, so I approached them and started to witness to them using the SOS tract 3 Things God Can Not Do. It is a simple easy way to tell someone of their need of salvation. One of the men were saved and the other put the tract in his pocket to make a decision later.”
It is a wonderful blessing to know that our labour is not in vain and His Word does not return void.
Isaiah 55:11
So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth:
it shall not return unto me void,
but it shall accomplish that which I please,
and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Homeless Man
August 23, 2014“Christian character is how you treat those who can do nothing for you.”
Waiting for a prescription at the pharmacy, a man came up to me and ask for some money. It was a very hot day in Florida, close to 95 degrees, but this man had on a heavy jacket and winter hat. He was not an old man, but looked it because of his long unkept beard.
I told him, “Out in the parking lot there is a red car with a man sitting in it, go talk to him, he has the answer for you.”
When I came out of the store the man saw me and followed me to the car.
I asked him why he did not come to the car earlier, and he told me he was afraid.
Tom was so gracious to that homeless man, giving home some suggestions where he could find a place to sleep and get a good meal, gave him a small amount of money and most important prayed with him for salvation and also that The Lord would bless him in the future.
People need The Lord and many need prayer. If you have a prayer need call Tom at 813-784-8242. This is a new ministry of SOS Events and several people have called, emailed and written for prayer.
Acts 10:34
Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:
Tracts Are Important
August 21, 2014“When preaching and private talk are not available, you need to have a tract ready….Get good striking tracts, or none at all. But a touching gospel tract may be the seed of eternal life. Therefore, do not go out without your tracts.”
Charles Spurgeon
Are you in the habit of handing out tracts? Is it important? YES!
I felt my life was worthless, no one loved me and I decided to end my life by walking into Niagara Falls.
That morning I met with my boss, to finalize the work from the day before. He sensed that I was upset and prayed for me. As I was leaving he gave me a book and a tract.
I sat by the Falls, getting courage to jump in, and decided to read that tract.
It saved my life in two ways. I sincerely prayed the prayer on the back of that tract and immediately my life was changed. Jesus became my Savior on that day over 50 years ago.
God has used me in many ways since then. I now always have tracts in my purse, in the car available to give to someone. Carolyn Curtis
SOS Events tracts are attractive and simple. Check out the bookstore on our homepage.

Acts 11:14
Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy house shall be saved.
Today’s News
August 7, 2014Watching or listening to the news is like reading a portion of the Bible. Wars and rumors of wars, strange weather conditions, disrespect of parents, murders, and much more doom and gloom. Read all of Mark 13.
There is HOPE. JESUS is coming soon. Christian get busy. The time is getting shorter. Now is the time to tell as many people as possible about our wonderful Savior.
If you are discouraged SOS can help you in several ways. We can pray for you. Call Tom 813-784-9242 or we can teach you how to be an effective witness using the “3 things God cannot do.”
Mark 13:7
And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled:for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet.
Mark 13:26
And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
Simple Salvation
August 5, 2014“We should remember that people can go to Heaven without knowing much of the Word of God, but they cannot go to Heaven without knowing Jesus Christ as Savior.”
Lee Roberson
Witnessing to the lost should be simple. Many Christians think that a person must know and understand much of the Bible before they can be saved. That is like putting the cart before the horse.
All a person needs to know to go to Heaven is that they have sinned, Jesus died and paid the price for their sin and they need to ask forgiveness and accept Jesus as their Savior.
SOS Events keeps the Gospel simple so even a young child can understand.
Then after their salvation everyone receives Bible lessons that are age appropriate.
People need The Lord. If you would like to learn how to present the Gospel in a simple way, contact SOS at info@sosevents.org.
Luke 23:43
And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.
New Jersey News
August 4, 2014SOS team in New Jersey went to a local Farmers Market where eleven people made decisions for Christ. Most were adults.
Lavanya, the team leader ask for prayer for one of the vendors a 16 year old young man named Ron. He is skeptical about God and did not make a decision. Please pray the Holy Spirit will work on Ron’s heart and the next time the team goes to this event, Ron will tell them he got saved.
At every event seeds are planted. SOS team members sow the seeds and God gives the harvest.
1 Corinthians 3:7
So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.
Your Comfort Zone
August 2, 2014“It is no marvel that the devil does not love field preaching! Neither do I; I love a commodious room, a soft cushion, a handsome pulpit. But where is my zeal if I do not trample all these underfoot in order to save one more soul?” ~ John Wesley
A true soul winner will go out from their comfort zone to reach people with the Gospel. SOS workers go into the marketplaces and various events to witness to the lost. Sometimes it’s hot, sometimes cold, rarely perfect conditions, but they go. Then God blesses and opens the windows of Heaven and souls come to know The Lord.
The joy of seeing even one person make a decision for Christ is undiscribable.
Are you willing to get out of your comfort zone and join with SOS Events to win souls to Christ? Contact: info@sosevents.org
Luke 15:7
I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.
Opportunities
July 30, 2014
Two young boys saved at an event in New Jersey. In the northern states the opportunities for events are limited by weather. Very few outside events take place in the winter. The team there takes advantage of every event possible when the weather is good.
Autumn is fast approaching. SOS has many events that take place in that busy season.
There is still time for new teams to be trained before September. If you have a desire to win souls and would like to learn how to use the “3 Things God Can Not Do”, SOS will teach you and supply what you need.
