Our Mission & Vision

Our vision and mission is to help connect people to faith

SOS Ministries started in 2011 and was initially conducted on Skype, which is a teleconferencing computer program. The original class consisted of six unbelieving university students in Asia and a Bible teacher in Aiken, South Carolina. The Bible study soon multiplied and went from one meeting a week to at least twenty. There are students in twelve countries. Many of the SOS students have come to faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
In addition to the online ministry, there are a couple short-term mission trips to meet the students face-to-face and build relationships. The mission trips include times of prayer, Bible study and fellowship.

What We Do:

  • Online Bible Study
  • Prayer
  • Providing supportive materials (books, DVDs, etc.)
  • Biblical Counseling
  • Other supportive services
    –  Locating churches
    –  Identifying campus ministries
  • Partnering with local indigenous ministries

Method:

  • The classes are taught on either WeChat or Zoom and include time for prayer, study, and discussion.
  • The classes are generally in English, though some are translated.
  • Notes are provided in advance and include the Scriptures in the language of the students.
  • Additional materials, such as videos, articles, are distributed

Our Beliefs

We believe that the Bible as originally written, was verbally and plenarily inspired, is the product of Spirit-controlled men, and, therefore, is truth without any mixture of error. There is one true God, eternally existing in three persons–Father, Son and Holy Spirit — each of whom equally possesses all the attributes of Deity and the characteristics of personality.

Jesus Christ is God, the living Word, who became flesh through His miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit and His virgin birth. Hence, He is perfect Deity and true humanity united in one person forever.

Jesus Christ lived a sinless life and voluntarily atoned for the sins of men by dying on the cross as their substitute, thus satisfying divine justice and accomplishing salvation for all who trust in Him alone.

Jesus Christ rose from the dead in the same body, though glorified, in which He lived and died. Jesus Christ ascended bodily into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God the Father, where He, the only mediator between God and man, continually makes intercession for His own.

Man is created in the image of God. All have sinned disobeying God; thus, man is alienated from His creator.

Please pray for the ongoing success of this ministry, that those who are unbelievers who attend the classes will come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. Pray for the believers who attend that they will grow in their faith and make an impact in their churches and their communities.
