In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 1 Thessalonians 5:18
It was hard to thank God for the damage to the SOS Events office when hurricane Milton did so much damage to the property.
It was a great blessing that the house was spared but it seemed like nothing good could come from this.
But God. Yes, through all of it God showed the generosity of people. Many came to help clean up and get rid of debris. People have given extra time and support to SOS Events, people that we did not even know.
The verse says, IN everything give thanks. Even during the most stressful time, give thanks. God has a plan for you and He wants to show you what He can do through that difficult situation.
When the hurricane hit Florida several events moved from October to November. Bethany Baptist Church is one of the events that SOS Events has participated in for many years. This year 20 people trusted Jesus as their Savior.
Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Psalm 68:19
Saturday, SOS Events Ministry in Alabama, had the opportunity to be at 2 separate events and the Lord Blessed greatly at both!
These 3 young men came by the ministry tent at the Lineville Car Show and after hearing the Gospel shared wanted to surrender their lives to Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
4 more young men came back to learn more about their walk with Christ and after hearing scripture shared they are now 100 % sure they are going to Heaven.
SOS was also at Santuck Flea Market. An awesome day in the Lord with 4 precious souls being saved after hearing the Gospel message shared and had many more conversations with people that needed encouragement and understanding.
We are so thankful for this life saving ministry and are grateful for another day to Serve Our Savior.
“And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Acts 2:21 KJV
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
Griffin Baptist Church in Lakeland had a community event on Saturday. God blessed with a great crowd and 17 people accepted Jesus at the SOS Events booth.
Everything there was free but the greatest thing those 17 people received was the gift of God, His Son Jesus.
Thank you to all SOS Events volunteers who took time out of their busy schedules to work this event and 2 more on Saturday.
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Ephesians 2:8
Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord. 1 Corinthians 15:58
Yesterday a phone call came in to the SOS Events home office. Nan called to ask for a Bible Study.
She went to the National Fair in Alabama, where she heard the gospel and accepted Jesus as her Savior, but did not give the volunteers her information.
The Lord has been working on her heart and she realized she needed to start a Bible study.
Then she asked Val (the SOS office assistant) if she could get Bible studies for her children. She sent 6 names and addresses for her family to get those Bible lessons. Pray that these family members will be saved.
There are times when the SOS Events volunteers may think that they are not getting through to people, but God works on the hearts. He wants to get the glory and we cannot see all He does. Our work for the Lord accomplishes what He wants even when we can’t see it.
SOS has finished at the Alabama National Fair. A total of 29 decisions for Christ. God blessed with 22 people who prayed and received salvation.
Sometimes there are those who have doubts about their salvation and just need assurance that God has truly forgiven them, 7 people prayed for assurance.
It is always a blessing to have 3 new volunteers who filled out testimony sheets. At events we also try to get Christians to get active in witnessing with SOS Events. There were 7 people who gave us their info and want to learn more about SOS ministry.
The home office gets what it needs from the Alabama Team to document this event.
It was a struggle to find volunteers to fill the spots needed and Carl and Patty were the take down crew – God is still in the business of miracles because getting all of the booth stuff into our cars and back into the closet was a miracle!
We know God will continue to work in and through those willing to share about His son.
For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. Philippians 2:13
There were 9 salvations at the last car show in Perrysburg Friday evening with the Ohio SOS Events Team , which brings the total for this year to 217 salvations!!!!
There was also a man from Ukraine who prayed the prayer of salvation. What a way to end the car show season!!! To God be all of the glory!!!
For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen. Romans 11:36
