SOS - You’re the LIFE of the Party!

"The S.O.S files are part of what I call THE S.O.S ADVENTURE. My concern is to help those on the field, by visits, written communications. It’s not a program or a separate ministry. It’s to help compliment what you are doing on the field. S.O.S stands for SOLD OUT ON SERVICE. " Rev. Robert (Bob) Vignola

Robert James Vignola “Bob” (August 13, 1950 - November 29,2016) was a caring servant and minister to God’s people. Bob was born and reared in New York where he gained a passion for music. He was especially fond of and loved the many songs produced by the legendary band, The Beatles. His attraction was not just in the music, but the uplifting effect it had on God’s people. During his teen years his quest for the answers to life led him to the Word of God. Once he found this truth it became his passion in life to share and teach it with others.

Reverend Robert James Vignola never got off the course which God set for him. He was full of life, love, and instruction, as well as giving and caring. Bob was a doulos (servant of God to God's people), a faithful father of four, a steadfast believer, and a loyal friend. As seen from the S.O.S files that he regularly emailed out to others, he had a contagious and irreplaceable humor. He was very proud of his New York Heritage (often quoting “The Brooklyn Text”) his family, and the Word of God and the man who taught it to him. His faithful stand for God’s people and the never ending agape (love of God in the renewed mind in manifestation) he poured out to others will last for all eternity.

To describe the heart and presence of Rev. Robert James Vignola would require endless pages with countless incidents by multitudes of people. However, when one reflects on his life, "The lillies of the field" and their attributes might represent his life well.

Bob Vignola, the lily of the field.

As the lily among thorns, so is my love among the daughters.

(Song of Solomon 2:2)

The lily will grow in fields, valleys, cultivated gardens and even among thorns. They spread their roots and produce trumpet shaped flowers of various colors. 

A lily has a sweet and fragrant flower with a strong scent. Within the lily are grains of seeds of a golden color which are very fruitful and help beautify any place (or person) they are around. The lily can be a tall flower, yet it hangs it's bloom down and does not attempt to draw attention to itself.

The lily has medical qualities as well. They can be used to restore a lost voice (a defeated soul), help faintness (loss of strength), are good for the liver (filters out poisons), encourages with beauty (makes one feel special-pretty-delighted-encouraged-merry) and spreads it's roots so others will grow.

Matthew 6:28-29

And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lillies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: And yet I say unto you, That even Soloman in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.

All who knew him can attest to Rev Vignola’s humbleness and lowliness of mind in service to God’s people. He lived to help others grow. He was living example of 1 Corinthians 13.

You’re the LIFE of the Party!

Acts 1:8
But ye shall receive [lambano] power after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem and in Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.

How important are the last words you leave to those you love, when you don’t know when you will see them face to face again. These words were the last recorded words Jesus Christ said before He was ascended.

Matthew 28:19  Go ye therefore and teach all nations

Mark 16:15  And He said unto them, Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature

Luke 24:47 And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His Name among all nations, beginning in Jerusalem [and please see if you can get to Brooklyn].

That last phrase was found in the Brooklyn Text. Take it with a grain of sugar. God’s Word works when it MOVES, when someone dares to believe it. World over the World wasn’t a nice motto. In this crazy world, it’s THE WORD that can help anybody anywhere. Whenever we speak The WORD, IT’S SPIRIT AND LIFE. God has given us this GIG and the God given ability to carry it out. You now take the place of your brother and Lord, Jesus Christ. So wherever you go, He goes.

YES, YOU ARE THE LIFE OF THE PARTY, TO SERVE AND HELP OTHERS

I love you and pray for you
