The Strawberry Festival Has Passed The Halfway Point!

March 4, 2026

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.

A true witness delivereth souls: Proverbs 14:25a

Praise the LORD for what He has done the last 4 days!

March 2, 2026

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

SOS Events Still Going!

Strawberry Festival FL – 450+ Accept Jesus

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)

First Training For SOS Events 2026

January 16, 2026

Bob and Ginger are wonderful SOS Events Leaders and Trainers. They had their first training in 2026 recently and 8 people came to be trained and volunteer at events.

SOS Events method is a simple and nonconfrontational way to witness to people using the “3 Things God Can Not Do”.

The Ministry always needs new volunteers in all areas. If you would like to be able to witness with confidence, SOS Events training is for you.

In whom we have boldness and access with confidence by the faith of him. Ephesians 3:12

Tracts

January 14, 2026
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. Isaiah 55:11

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

Halloween An Opportunity To Witness!

October 31, 2025

Halloween is a day that originated to ward off evil spirits with bonfires and sacrifices. This weekend is a time when children trick or treat and adults party. Some people love Halloween and others hate it, but however you feel about Halloween, as Christian we can use it to witness for the Lord.

If children come to your house for trick or treat be sure to give them a tract along with the candy. 

SOS Events participates in many Halloween alternatives at churches and community events.

Be a witness and use this opportunity for God’s glory. Also please pray for many souls to be saved on this weekend, the busiest in the year for SOS Events all around the USA.

Matthew 19:14 But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven

God’s Wake Up Call!

September 21, 2025

Today is the funeral of a Christian who stood up for God and His Word. When Charlie Kirk was assassinated the news traveled worldwide through social media.

God uses many tragedies to wake-up His people. We as Christians need to standup and serve God with boldness and without fear.

Our Country and the world needs Jesus. Are you listening to God’s call?

Do You Know The Right Question?

July 18, 2025
1 Peter 3:15 – But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:

Do you know the questions to ask when witnessing to someone about how to get to Heaven?

Questions are so important. We can tell others about Jesus, how he paid for their sins when He died on the cross. He was buried and 3 days later He arose. Then we do not go any farther.

We have to ask the right question to lead them to ask forgiveness for their sin and invite Jesus to be their Savior.

Unsure of how to do that? What questions do you need to ask? 

SOS Events Ministry can teach you how to ask the right questions and lead people to the Lord in a simple, nonconfrontational way. We have the answers to the questions.

You can come to one of SOS Events Trainings in person. If that is not possible, training is also on the Website.
