evangelistic crusades Transform a City Reach an Entire Nation Train a Student God wants to draw lost and hurting people to Himself and to transform neighborhoods and cities by the power of the Gospel. Millions of people have heard the Gospel in person at BGEA s citywide evangelistic Crusades, Festivals, and Celebrations in recent years. Franklin Graham and associate evangelists such as Will Graham lead evangelistic events in American cities from New Jersey to California and from Texas to the Great Lakes, as well as in Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia, and Latin America. Each Crusade is carried out in close partnership with local churches, and the people who make lifechanging spiritual commitments impact their city and its churches for years to come. Friends inviting friends to meet Jesus it s such a simple concept, yet it can dramatically impact a whole nation when carried out simultaneously by tens of thousands of individual believers across an entire country in a single weekend. My Hope combines the reach of a nationwide television event with the power of one-on-one testimonies shared personally in living rooms. With nearly 4.5 million host families trained in 57 countries so far, the Holy Spirit has been using My Hope to draw people to Jesus and change lives at a pace beyond all anyone asked or dared to imagine. According to research, nearly two-thirds of all Christian believers in our country came to faith while children or teens.

But at the Billy Graham Library, people s life stories are changed. Visitors come from every state and many foreign countries, up to a thousand people on busy days and even more during December for Christmas at the Library. The displays, high-tech exhibits, and multimedia presentations tell the story of how God used one man s life and ministry in remarkable ways but that s not the Library s real purpose. The primary goal is life-changing ministry. The same message of Jesus Christ that Billy Graham has preached his entire life is woven into every part of the tour. Thousands of guests have prayed with Library volunteers and staff concerning personal spiritual decisions, and thousands of others have shared about the commitments to Christ they made as a result of their visit. Comfort the Suffering In the aftermath of a disaster, not all the damage can be repaired with medicine, plywood, and insurance. Even as emergency and relief workers respond to physical needs, the Billy Graham Rapid Response Team deploys crisis-care chaplains to help meet emotional and spiritual needs. Founded following the 9/11 terrorist attacks, the Rapid Response Team has trained more than 12,000 volunteer chaplains in its first decade. Those chaplains have comforted, encouraged, and prayed one-on-one with more than 174,000 people affected by tragedies hurricanes, earthquakes, shooting massacres, floods, tornadoes, and fires bringing the love and compassion of Christ into shattered lives and communities. li br a r y bi ll y g r a h a m sands of rs and the thou Pray for voluntee s. weekly visitor r in 2012 ster to every visito $5.8 million to mini rations. ct lives for gene $10,000 can impa selors. 30 volunteer coun $4,000 can train e materials for $200 can provid children. g in 100 visit se te a m r a pi d r es po n ers and the rvivors of disast Pray for the su ering to them. chaplains minist oyment and ort chaplain depl pp su to 00,0 26 $9 training in 2012 erials for r Bibles and mat $200 can pay fo ors. 10 disaster surviv 1/12/12 4:28 PM
