Franklin Graham announces UK tour

Sixty-five years after Billy Graham’s first historic UK missions his son, Franklin Graham has announced plans for an eight-city UK tour beginning in the summer of 2020. 

Speaking ahead of a launch event in Liverpool on Friday 24 October, Franklin said: “Two-thirds of people in the UK say they are unfulfilled and nearly 20 per cent struggle with constant loneliness. Only Jesus Christ offers lasting purpose, in this life and for eternity. He is our only hope – and you can reach your community with his love.”

Franklin has devoted his life to proclaiming the gospel and serves as president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA). His first evangelistic event with the ministry was in 1989 and since then he has held 197 events in 188 cities and 51 countries.

The Bishop of Birkenhead, Keith Sinclair, says he owes his own conversion to Christianity in part to his father, the late Billy Graham, and is giving his support to the gospel outreach event next year.

Bishop Keith says: “I owe my own conversion to Christ in part to the Billy Graham Crusade in Earls Court London in 1966. I have long admired and been blessed by the ministry of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. The first week after my ordination as deacon in Birmingham in 1984, I was at Aston Villa for Mission England.

“I am thankful for the continuing evangelistic mission of the BGEA and want to commend the Graham Tour event at M&S Bank Arena on 12 June 2020. Many from churches across the Wirral and beyond may be bringing friends, as I was brought over fifty years ago. May many hear the saving news of God in Christ. May many come to receive and experience a new birth in the Holy Spirit.”
