What Is Your Story?

May 2, 2025

Everyone who is saved has a story. How did you come to know the Savior, Jesus?

There are many testimonies that have been told:

A man who went by a church, heard the music and walked in, asked the usher how he could be saved.

The little girl who went to church and when the alter call was given followed the soul winner out of curiosity and trusted Jesus as her Savior.

The man whose lost his son in a tragic accident. Before his last breath, the son asked his Dad, will I see you in Heaven?

The person who was about to commit suicide and picked up a tract, read it and was wonderfully saved.

What is your story? You need to tell it. Write it down. Tell it to someone in person or through social media. Your story could touch someone’s heart and be the very thing that will cause them to accept Jesus.

Start Your Day With The LORD!

April 29, 2025

Awake up, my glory; awake, psaltery and harp: I myself will awake early. Psalm 57:8

The best time to spend with the Lord is early in the morning. It’s a great way to start your day.

Take time to read scripture and let the Lord speak to you. Then pray, thanking the Lord for all He has done for you, and then ask for your requests.

If you have to get up a half an hour to an hour early. It may be hard at first, but it is well worth it.

No Prayer Is Too Small For God!

April 22, 2025

Do you trust God for the big things? But when the little things are present, you think that it’s just coincidence or that He doesn’t care.

Do you think that praying for a parking place, or to help you find the color of some new furniture, or that you would receive a phone call from a particular person are all too small for God?

No, God cares for all of these things in your life. If you’re trusting in him, totally, he will supply every need and even our wants no matter how small they are.

No prayer is too small for God.

Pray For This Pastor

April 12, 2025

Please join with me praying for Pastor Sullivan. Praying for his safety and release.

The world is in chaos right now when sometimes we do not feel safe. A news story like this makes us realize that we have to trust the LORD.

 I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety. Psalm 4:8

Cars and Coffee

April 8, 2025

Cars and Coffee car show near Near Cookeville, TN took place on Saturday.

This was a first event for this new SOS Events Team.

God blessed with 2 teens who were saved.

Another blessing was the 5 new volunteers who witnessed at an event for the first time.

This Team will have more events throughout the spring and summer. Please be in prayer for them as they follow the LORD’s command to go and give out the gospel.

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

Plan “B”

April 7, 2025

When you have something planned for an event, party, or celebration and something happens just before that is unexpected, do you have a “plan B”? That means you have something to replace the thing that went wrong.

SOS Events did not have a plan B for the Annual Celebration that took place on Saturday.

Plans were made, programs printed. The Charisma Trio was coming to sing. On Friday that all changed. The Trio could not come.

The staff was decorating for the event when the sad news came. What to do? Pray. Then get together and come up with a plan.

That evening, the pianist, Sandy, opened her home and the newly formed quartet met for the first time for a short practice and the SOS Singers were formed.

They did a wonderful job especially because they had never sung together before.

God gave a wonderful blessing. The Annual Celebration was a great success.

When you don’t have a “Plan B” in your life, pray and trust the LORD to direct and things will turn out even better than your plan.

Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Proverbs 3:5&6

Church, Important For Christian Growth

April 6, 2025
Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. Colossians 3:16

In the USA we are blessed to be able to go to the church of our choice. In many other countries this is not true.

Some countries dictate which church the people are allowed to go to. Other countries people are told they cannot go to church at all. These people are in danger if they worship together.

Church is important for our growth as Christians, fellowship of believers and help in time of need.

Getting Ready For SOS Events Annual Celebration!

April 4, 2025
William Slater Chairman of the Board

This photo is from SOS Events Annual Celebration last year. Today, the staff will go over to the venue and prepare for the Celebration which takes place tomorrow.

Many leaders, volunteers, and friends of SOS will be there. If you signed up to come, we will be happy to see you.

If you are going to miss it this year, look forward to next year.

What do we celebrate? First and most important, are the people who have trusted Jesus this past year. God allows us to be a part of thousands of people every year who got saved through the ministry.

Second, we celebrate the wonderful volunteers and supporters who give of their time, talent and finances to make winning souls possible.

This yearly celebration is fun and something we look forward to, but there is even a greater celebration that nobody should want to miss.

That is the celebration we will have when we get to Heaven and celebrate with the LORD Jesus.

Are you ready?

And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God. Revelation 19:9

When You Feel Overwhelmed

April 3, 2025

Do you feel overwhelmed and there is so much to do? No time to get it all done.

Jesus gave us the answer in Matthew 11:28. “ Come unto me“, He said.

Stop, take a few minutes to read His Word, pray and ask Him for wisdom, strength to calm to fill your mind and heart.

Peace will come over you and all things will be accomplished. Maybe some things will have to wait until later but you will have assurance that it is in His hands.

How To Treat Your Enemies!

April 2, 2025

Forgive your enemies, it will mess with their mind.”
This is a quote from a church sign. Catchy but true. The Bible tells us to forgive and also do something good for your enemies.


The best thing we can do is pray for them, the next is to witness to them in a simple non confrontational way.


SOS asks this question, ” Do you know the 3 Things God Can Not Do.”
Simple, thought provoking and an easy way to witness to your family, friends and even your enemies.
