We might have guessed it. Billy Graham isn't fading into the sunset just yet.
He said in June that the New York crusade would be his final one. But the legendary evangelist is scheduled to speak in New Orleans this month. Graham, if his health permits, will address pastors and the general public at his son Franklin Graham's 'Celebration of Hope' rally March 11 and 12 at New Orleans Arena, next to the heavily damaged Louisiana Superdome.
Vocalist George Beverly Shea will be there, as well as Cliff Barrows, Graham's longtime song leader.
I was happy to hear the news. This gathering will give us a chance to hear the powerfully straightforward message of Billy Graham in person again and also listen to Shea's incomparable version of 'How Great Thou Art.'"
