God blessed the SOS Alabama Team led by Ronnie Burlison at the Mt Top Flea Market Atalla, Alabama with 19 salvations.
This included 5 adults, 12 teenagers and 2 children. It is always interesting how many different age groups are among the people who stop at the SOS Events booth and listen to the gospel and respond.
Ages are recorded because each new Christian receives an age appropriate Bible study. That is one of the ways SOS Events follows up.
Also, the information for each person is sent to a local church for personal follow up. Praying each one will grow in their new faith.
So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 10:17
Florida Strawberry Festival has ended for another great year. God blessed the SOS Team with 238 salvations.
Praise the LORD for these new Christians. Praying for each of them. The Bible tells us they are like new babies. They need to be fed, cared for and grow.
They will receive Bible studies but they need more than that. A good Bible preaching church and mature Christians to guide them.
Praying God will direct them to the right place where they will be fed.
As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby.1 Peter 2:2
SOS Team praying with a man who was listening to the plan of salvation.
Over 150 people have been saved so far at Strawberry Festival this year. Praise the Lord for His faithfulness.
The volunteers who give of their time and talent have a heart for these people who pass by. Their love for the lost is amazing.
Only today and tomorrow are left, then this event will be over. Prayer for more people to be saved will be appreciated.
To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. Acts 28:16
Strawberry Festival in Florida has 3 days to share the “ good news”. Please pray earnestly for people to be saved. Many come and hear the gospel and they need to have tender hearts.
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. Romans 10:9
Strawberry Festival in Plant City, Florida has surpassed the half way mark! Five more days to go.
There have been 120 decisions up until yesterday! Praise the Lord!
Please join me in prayer for the rest of this event, that people will be saved, volunteers will be filled with the spirit, and that the remaining shifts will be filled.
We still have empty opportunities for volunteers, especially the evening shifts and all day on Sunday.
The Strawberry Festival continues today. Parade Day is an exciting day at the Festival. School is out for the children in Plant City. People from many States come to the Festival.
There have been 95 people who have trusted Jesus as their Savior in the last 4 days. Please continue to pray for the volunteers and especially the people passing by to be saved.
We do lift the name of Jesus when people come to the volunteer who explains the A,B, C plan of salvation.
Jesus said, And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. John 12:32
March 1-11, 2007 SOS Ministries in partnership with 10 churches from the Plant City, Fl area saw God do miraculous things.
January and February were busy months for the staff at SOS Ministries in preparation for this event. Tom and Carolyn Curtis, Jay and Penny Ayres spent many training sessions with the 58 people who worked a shift at the booth. We are especially thankful for Don and Shirley Riegel who drove from Ohio to help us with training and at the Festival. God brought the increase.
He is faithful and rewards dedicated people who serve Him. Many of the workers led their first soul to Christ and their enthusiasm is catching. We are now in the process of follow-up. We appreciate the volunteers who are writing letters, making phone calls and personally visiting the new converts.
This was the first post to social media about the Strawberry Festival. SOS Events started with the festival at least 2 years earlier.
Today starts another year that SOS Events will be there.
If you are a trained volunteer in Florida, you can be a part of this great opportunity to witness at this event. Sign up for your 3 hour shift before you miss your blessing.
Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: Isaiah 43:10a
(All the participants in this article have gone on to Heaven except Carolyn and Penny. Imagine the people who will meet them who were saved at Strawberry Festival)
Some of the office staff went to the vendor appreciation dinner at the Plant City Strawberry Festival last evening.
Every year the vendors are blessed with a great meal and a big strawberry shortcake.
SOS Events has been blessed to have a booth in the festival for over 20 years. Over 6000 people have trusted Jesus as their Savior.
The festival starts Thursday and we still have some vacant slots for volunteers. If you have been trained or would like a quick training, and want to sign up to have a part in this great opportunity, please call the home office today. 813-494-7512.
God will bless you as you obey the great commission. Go and tell.
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. Mark 16:15
