NEW SCHOOL OF EVANGELISM
Dr. Guido has been serving the Lord since he heard the
Gospel preached during a tent revival in Lorain, Ohio,
his hometown, when he was 18 years old. He had been
touring as a dance band member and leader during the
Depression, and his life was forever changed – indeed,
the lives of many – were changed when he answered
God’s call of salvation and service over 70 years ago.
Michael and Audrey Guido’s autobiography, “Seeds
from the Sower: How God is blessing a couple who dare
to take Him at His Word” was published in 1990. The
couple and many volunteers maintain a website,
www.the-sower.org, which brings the plan of salvation
