Beyond the USA

June 19, 2014

20140619-065539-24939750.jpg
SOS does have influence in countries outside the USA. Pictured here is one of the team from Germany who came to Florida, was trained with SOS staff and went to the Farmers market in Plant City, Fl.
Five people made decisions for Christ.
SOS also has missionaries from England, Philippines and Yugoslavia using the “3 Things God Can Not Do” displays to interest people in the gospel.
Several invitations have come from various countries but at this time there is none of our staff able to go, however, God does send them to us.
We pray as Jabez prayed, increase our coast. 

 1 Chronicles 4:10  And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested.

Are You To Busy?

June 18, 2014

“We are too busy to pray, and so we are too busy to have power. We have a great deal of activity, but we accomplish little; many services but few conversions; much machinery but few results.” ~R.A. Torrey
Individuals today are too busy to serve God. SOS needs people to go into the marketplace to win souls to The Lord. We are thankful for the dedicated people who do go, but if there were Christians who would go just 5 hours a week or a month hundreds more lost souls could be saved.
Churches are also guilty of being too busy. They have programs instead of power, preaching instead of prayer ( nothing wrong with preaching, but where have the old time prayer meetings gone). Forty percent of fundamental churches that do not see even one soul save in a year.
Are you too busy to hand out a tract, pray for someone in need, visit the sick, encourage someone who needs a friend, witness to your neighbor or stop and talk to The Lord in true worship?
We need to spend our time wisely. Once it is gone we cannot reclaim it.

John 9:4
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day:the night cometh, when no man can work.

The news today could be a chapter out of the Bible on the end times. Wars, rumors of war, severe weather in unusual places, violence, chaos, unrest in the Middle East and much more news that is predicted in scripture.
The bright side of the news is: Jesus is coming. We don’t know the time. It could be today. This is good news for those of us who are born again.
Fellow Christian, the hour is late. We must be tell others who may not be saved how they can accept the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus, who paid their sin debt. Today, tell the good news to someone. Tomorrow it may be too late.

Luke 21:25-28
And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth:for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

First Friday

Each month Lakeland, FL barricades the streets from car traffic around Munn Park for a community event of food, music, community & civic organizations, churches, politicians, police, fire, utilities, transportation, etc. to gather for networking & general information sharing. This picture with Joyce Mlinek, was taken immediately after we set up the SOS Events booth @ 5:30PM. Seven souls were saved at this event on Friday evening.

Romans 1:16
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ:for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

Opportunity

June 7, 2014

“Your big opportunity may be right where you are now.”
Napoleon Hill
There are opportunities to serve The Lord with SOS Events winning people to Christ where you live. Summertime is a great season for soul winning. Yard sales, farmers markets, social gatherings in your town.
All you need is the guidance of the Holy Spirit, some training, a display board, some tracts and 3 willing people and you can see many souls get saved. Don’t miss this opportunity. The rewards will be in Heaven when The Lord says well done.
Click on the Training Videos on the home page to get started.

Matthew 25:23
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things:enter thou into the joy of thy lord.

Veteran Meets Christ

June 6, 2014

Afghan war vet meets Jesus @ Auburndale, FL Flea Mkt: Ben, 31, from Smithburg, MD was visiting his mother. After soundly defeating him in arm wrestling, Randy Mlinek had the joy of sharing the Gospel with Ben. He was unchurched doubted if God could ever forgive him for what he had done. When he heard how some Bible heroes had committed serious sins and were still forgiven by God, he realized the Grace of God could in fact forgive him too. Ben said, “I believe God brought me to Florida just so I could talk to you today.” In repentance, Ben asked Jesus Christ to forgive and save his soul.

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.

Churchyard Event

June 3, 2014

Randy Thomas showing the “3Things God Cannot Do” at a “Churchyard Event”. This church had a block party for the neighborhood and 4 souls were saved. This was a good way to reach the community.
SOS has several ways a church can reach their area with events on the church property. Usually these events take place on Saturdays and then the converts are already familiar with the church and a great opportunity to invite them to services on Sunday.
For more information email: info@sosevents.org

Acts 2:47
Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

World Outreach In The Marketplace

Right) Luz 21, from Adjantas, Puerto Rico, is unchurched & on vacation. Jane Hill shared a clear presentation of the Gospel & Luz prayed in repentance & faith, asking Jesus Christ to forgive & save her soul.
Another great weekend at the Auburndale Flea Market. The Bible tells us to go into all the world and preach the gospel, but events God sends them to SOS.

Mark 16:15
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

Alabama Salvation Story

May 29, 2014

Interesting salvation story from Patty our SOS Event Leader in Alabama;
This past Saturday at Eastmont’s Yard Sale we had a lady accept Christ into her heart as her Lord and Savior (“Sally”), only to tell us afterwards that her husband is a Muslim!! She was so very excited to have Jesus in her heart and did not exhibit any signs of fear or worry about telling her husband…she even agreed to have us come for a home visit!!!
We Praise The Lord for what He is doing through SOS events. Please pray specifically for “Sally.”

1 Timothy 2:4
Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

How Shall They Hear

May 27, 2014

Robert 30, from Babson Park, FL (about 45 minutes S/E of Auburndale) is unchurched. His wife is a Christian who faithfully attends church. Robert “saw” a presentation of the Gospel this Easter as he went to a Passion Play with his wife, in Lake Wales, FL. Robert said he was moved to tears at the message but there was no invitation or instructions on how to respond; to become a Saved, Born Again Christian. Today he readily responded with tears in his eyes. God had prepared Robert’s heart for salvation as they visited family this Memorial Day weekend.

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?
