The “God Loves You” Tour by evangelist Franklin Graham which was concluded on Sunday, October 2nd in Rochester, Minnesota, has reached over 50,000 people across six cities with the gospel.This fall, thousands of people in six American cities heard the evangelist Franklin Graham’s message of God’s compassion and forgiveness. The tour attracted almost 50,000 individuals who came to hear the wonderful message of God.The “God Loves You” Tour kicked off in Allentown, Pennsylvania in late September and continued through to Oct. 2nd.According to the CBN news, The “God Loves You” outreach began in  Allentown, PA in late September and continued across 1,000 miles, including stops in York, Pennsylvania; Youngstown, Ohio; Flint, Michigan; and Waukesha, Wisconsin.The tour, which was an outreach of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA), recorded more than 970 churches across all six cities partnering with BGEA because they wanted to hear the Word of God preached in their communities.More than 8,000 people attended the last night of the event in Rochester which featured the musical ministration of the Newsboys, Marcos Witt, and Dennis Agajanian.Franklin Graham wrapped up his tour on Sunday, and he shared his thoughts on his Facebook page,“My father Billy Graham first came to Rochester back in 1950 and loved coming back every chance he could over the next 60 years. He had many friends here and he had incredible doctors and a medical team that treated him at Mayo Clinic. The Lord extended his years, but the great team at Mayo also played a huge role in that. Then I had my heart surgery here at Mayo almost one year ago—and I can’t say enough good about the team who treated me.I’ve been looking forward to coming here to share the Gospel with the people of this area on the God Loves You Tour. Today at Soldiers Memorial Field Park, I was so excited to see thousands of people come out to hear the Gospel.The world around us is changing so drastically, but there is something that doesn’t change—God and His Holy Word. He created us, He loves us, and He wants to have a personal relationship with us. There aren’t many paths to God—only one—and that is through repentance and faith in His Son, Jesus Christ. What a blessing to witness so many respond to the invitation to put their trust in Him. We thank God for touching hearts and lives in Rochester!Jesus said, ‘I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me’ (John 14:6).”With more than 2000 individuals giving their lives to Jesus Christ, the tour was a major success throughout the 6 cities in the United States of America.We pray God uses the aftermath of this tour to further grow, strengthen and unite the local churches in the States.Maxwell OrahALSO READ Franklin Graham, Newsboys To Share The Gospel On The ‘God Loves You’ Tour
