Opportunities

June 6, 2015

Leslie, a home health nurse, came to the Curtis house to change the bandages on Tom’s ankle. As with all the others who have come she heard the gospel and she gladly accepted JESUS as her Saviour. 

What an opportunity Tom has had to witness everyday to a different person. We are so thankful that his wound is healing and hopefully he will be able to get back to his regular activities soon. In the meantime he will take advantage of all the opportunities that God gives him to tell others about the Lord.

Please continue to pray for his complete healing and also for the five people who have been saved though this trial.

Galatians 6:10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.

  

Four Saved in Columbus

June 1, 2015

Randy and Romona Thomas traveled to Ohio to work with a church at the “churchyard event” this past weekend. Four adults were saved and one of the couples are pictured below. SOS Events is blessed to have people willing to go wherever God leads them to win souls to Christ.

“Brandon and Amanda came to Christ, along with another couple, at Turning Point Church’s outreach event on Saturday in Columbus, Ohio.

It’s past time for our churches to reach out to their communities with the gospel! Be sure to tell others where ever you go.”

Randy Thomas

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.

  

All Seasons

May 21, 2015

Weather has a lot to do with when and where events take place. Late Spring and Summertime in Florida the outside events are few because of the extreme heat. While in the northern states Spring, Summer and early Autumn are the seasons when outside events are many.

SOS Events ministry is blessed to have teams in both the North and the South. New Jersey SOS team had their first event for this year (a Flea Market) and there were 8 decisions for Christ. The Alabama team has some schuled events and in Florida there is the monthly car show and also flea markets.

Please pray for all the team leaders and volunteers who are out witnessing in all kinds of weather and circumstances. They witness in season and out of season no matter what. 

2 Timothy 4:2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.

Home Health Nurse Saved

May 18, 2015

Tom is home from the hospital and a nurse comes to the house to treat the wound on his foot. Paul was one of the nurses. 

He said he is one of only 6% of all the nurses who are male and Tom was blessed to have him come to the house. As they talked the conversation turned to the subject of salvation. Tom as usual handed Paul a tract and asked him if he had ever seen the “3 Things God Cannot Do”

Paul said he had never heard about the 3 things.

Tom told him: 1. God cannot lie. Titus 1:2.    2. God cannot change. Malachi 3:6.   3. God cannot let anyone in heaven unless they are born again. John 3:3-5.

Then he asked Paul if he had ever been saved. When Paul answered “No” Tom proceeded to explain the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus.

Paul bowed his head and invited JESUS to be his Savior.

Romans 8:38 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

  

God’s Faithfulness 

May 15, 2015

As founders of SOS Events Ministry, Tom and I are so grateful to the faithful workers and volunteers who continue to do the work of the ministry when we are not able to be in the office or at events because of Tom’s health problems.

God’s work continues, souls are getting saved and the ministry is growing and will continue to flourish because of the great staff, Board of Directors, office workers and volunteers that God has used to keep everything running smoothly. A good example is the 17 souls that made decisions to follow JESUS at the Plant City Flea Market on Wednesday. Pictured below is Randy with 2 boys who were saved at the Flea Market.

2 Timothy 2:2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

  

Roxanne

May 14, 2015

Roxanne is a nurse in the hospital where Tom Curtis  is being treated. The first day that Tom was there he led Roxanne to the Lord. She once again is his nurse 5 days later and you can see the joy on her face as she now knows JESUS as her Savior.
Tom jokingly said that everyone of SOS workers and volunteers should have a stay in the hospital because it is a mission field. 

Psalms 51:13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.

 

Rejoicing in Time of Trouble

May 11, 2015

One of Tom Curtis’s favorite verse is Romans 8:28. Being in the hospital is not always the most pleasant experiences, but Tom is not ever going to let an occasion to witness pass him by.

One of the nurses, a woman from Jamaca originally, was taking care of him and he asked her if she had ever invited JESUS to save her. This was after they had talked about the Lord at length.

She replied that she knew about JESUS but never had trusted Him to save her. In that hospital room, Roxanne, bowed her head repented of her sin and ask the Lord to forgive her. There is rejoicing, even in circumstances that are not easy.

Please pray for Tom as he is a diabetic and has a circulation problem in his feet that may require surgery. Also, he is scheduled for his heart pacemaker to be changed, but that will probably be put on hold until his foot heals. JESUS is the great physician and can heal. Thank you for your prayers for him.

Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Final total at Talladega Races, 70 saved! Praise the Lord!

This family now have 2 Birthdays. The physical birth and their spiritual birth they received at Talladega. What a joy to be part of SOS Events Ministry where individuals and families have opportunity to be saved.

  

Traveling Blessings

April 24, 2015

  
Glenn and Dena Priddy, SOS Events newest missionary couple, have returned from a trip to Virginia. They had many wonderful blessings as they traveled.

Sign on the back window of their car was seen by hundreds of people as they drove the highways and one man called their cell phone to ask what the “3 Thing God Can Not Do” are. He was already a Christian and told them to keep up the good work.

23 CHRISTIANS came to the training that they conducted in Virginia. A new place for soul winning for SOS Events.

One of the couples at that training live in Pennsylvania and took information to their Pastor about SOS Events. That couple resides in Florida in the winter and wants to help at the Strawberry Festival next year.

Several of SOS Events missionaries travel and need prayer for safety and  blessings. Dena needs prayer as she is facing back surgery in the next few months, but pain has not stopped this dedicated couple from witnessing for the Lord. She postponed surgery until after this Virginia trip and the first week in May they will travel to Alabama to witness at the Talledega Races.

Every Christian should love the Lord and have a burden for the lost that Glenn and Dena have. They are faithful witnesses.

2 Timothy 2:2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

Faithful Volunteers

April 18, 2015

 A picture is worth 1000 words the saying goes. Picture was taken this week at the Plant City, Florida Flea Market.

Eighteen souls were saved this week. SOS Events Ministry is blessed to have faithful men and women who volunteer for events. Over 800 souls have been saved at events since January 1st.
