Power

February 5, 2019

Electricity is so important to our way of living that if the power goes out we have a problem functioning. The SOS Events office was closed yesterday and today because of electrical problems that needed to be resolved. The whole property including 2 offices, workshop and Curtis home was without electricity. No work could be done so nothing was accomplished.

As Christians we have a source of Power in our lives to get things done. That Power is the Holy Spirit. Sometimes, the power gets shut off because of sin, indifference or disobedience. Spiritually, nothing gets done. No souls are won because we don’t witness, prayers are not answered because we don’t pray and the worst thing,we have no fellowship with our Savior, Jesus. If our Power is damaged, let’s get it repaired. Repent and renew our relationship with the Lord. Ask His forgiveness. He is waiting to restore the Power in our lives.

Romans 15:13 Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost.

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.

Carolyn Curtis with Pastor Theodore Martens

SOS ministry — There yesterday at their annual presentation where their effectiveness in evangelistic outreach was so evidently reported for 2018.

A great Gospel and outreach ministry worthy of your financial support. One of the best accountable ministries out there that will use what you give for real Gospel and soul-reaching purposes.

Tom Curtis went to be with the Lord in early 2017, and Carolyn Curtis still carries on Tom’s vision, purpose and plan, alongside of many others at the same headquarters in Dover, Florida.

I was reminded again of Tom’s passion, unique giftedness, love for evangelism, his unrelenting and effective activity in sharing the Gospel himself, his drive into and throughout 70’s, and the moving story of his own salvation experience as a successful executive who came to know Jesus through the tragic sudden death of his son.

Theodore Martens

Acts 20:24 But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.

Board of Directors SOS Events

February 3, 2019

The 2nd Annual Meeting of SOS Events Ministry took place, yesterday and was a great success. God has blessed this growing ministry with a great Board of Directors. Dale Brown, Carolyn Curtis, Cofounder, William Slater, Diana Guiliano, Secretary/treasurer, and Mike Cominski. Each one of these Board Members has a important role in the success and growth of SOS Events.

1 Corinthians 3:9 For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building.

Exciting Day

February 2, 2019

This photo was taken at SOS Events Annual Meeting last year. About 35 people attended. Today is the second Annual Meeting and over 75 people have registered. Over double from last year. God is blessing SOS Events with new people and new opportunities. Please pray for a great meeting and God’s continued blessings and that He will expand our coast as He did Jabez.

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.

God is Love

February 1, 2019

February is the month we think about Love. Some of us have a wonderful love story and others have only heartache and disappointment in love, but for all of us there is Someone who loves us more than we can ever imagine. God loves us so much He sent His Only Son, Jesus, to die on the cross so we can have eternal life. There is no greater love.

John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

January Ends

January 31, 2019

How was your month? Most of us have had many days of cold weather and our soul winning opportunities were few. Do not be discouraged. It is a great time to plan for warmer weather. Looking for future events? Look on line to your local Chamber of Commerce. Many events are free or of low cost to a non profit organization. SOS Events qualifies. You have to go shopping, hand out a tract or witness to the person in the checkout line. When you mail a letter, put a tract in it. Witness whenever and wherever you can. February starts tomorrow. New month, new opportunities. Let us spread the message of God’s love.

1 John 4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.

Tracts

January 30, 2019

Tracts are very effective. Many Christians have been saved reading a tract, either along with someone witnessing or them or picking one up and reading it on their own. Carolyn Curtis is a good example. She was given a tract the morning she was on the way to Niagara Falls to end her life. While getting up the courage to jump in, she read the tract, prayed the prayer on the back and was gloriously saved. Since that time many have come to the Lord through her witness. One tract can change a life. You can be the one to give a tract to someone in person, leave one in the restroom at a store restaurant or any public place. Put one in a library book, in a shoe box at a shoe store. Be creative. Think of a place to leave a tract and pray someone will find it who needs the Lord. It is a life changing opportunity.

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.

Pray for SOS Events

January 29, 2019

Problems are part of life and on the SOS Events property there is an electricity problem. When working on display boards in the paint shop, David Dow, noticed sparks coming from an electric outlet. He immediately shut off the power. When the Electrician came, he gave us the bad news, all the wiring and boxes need replacement. The Office, Workshop and the Curtis home are all effected by the old dangerous system. We are thankful that God kept the property safe from fire, but this problem must be taken care of immediately. Until then all power to the workshop is shut off. Pray for additional funds will come in to pay for the repairs. Estimate $4000. SOS Events is a faith based ministry. God provides through the generosity of people who love the ministry. Please pray that the funds will come in and ask the Lord what you can do to help.

Proverbs 21:3 The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the Lord.

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.

Stormy Days

January 28, 2019

On a cold stormy day, we do not feel like doing anything but stay inside, wrap in a warm fuzzy blanket and do nothing. When storms of life happen, we feel the same way. Just stay inside, wrap up in our sorrow and pain and do nothing. Our attitude reflects the storm, however, God tells us to behave differently in those circumstances. He is with us, will not forsake us and gives us the strength to go on to serve Him.

Isaiah 49:10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Psalms 50:15 And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.

Psalms 138:8 The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.

Pray for Your Pastor

January 27, 2019

Pastors need our prayers and encouragement. Lift you Pastor up today with prayer and a good word.

Hebrews 13:17 Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.
