Dear Friend,
Unseasonably cold temperatures and pouring rain at many of the stops didn’t prevent thousands of people from hearing the Good News of Jesus Christ during the God Loves You Tidewater Tour earlier this month.
Friends like you prayed that men, women, and children in Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina would surrender their lives to the Lord during the tour—and we praise God that hundreds of them did.
Over and over again, we heard stories of how the Lord worked at each event. In Salisbury, Maryland, Cathie* boldly stood when I invited the crowd to respond to the Good News in repentance and faith. Right away, she connected with one of our prayer volunteers, Ethel, who turned out to be a friend of a friend.
As the two women talked, she shared that she had never surrendered her life to Jesus Christ, but she was ready to make that commitment now. After Cathie said a heartfelt prayer, Ethel gave her a brand-new Bible and discipleship resources. “Happy birthday,” Ethel told her after they prayed together. “You now have a spiritual birthday!”
In the coming months, my son Will and I have a full schedule of preaching the Gospel in cities across the globe. Will you pray that many people will put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ at each of these events?
Thank you for your heart for evangelism. Together, we “are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel” (Philippians 1:27, NASB).
May the Lord richly bless you,
Franklin Graham
President and CEO

 Our gift to you: Each day we’re bombarded with stories of evil of all kinds—but God is in control. As Dr. David Jeremiah illustrates, Christians can learn from the Old Testament prophet Daniel who also lived during troubling times. The Handwriting on the Wall will help you live with confident faith, and is our gift to you when we hear from you this month. |
