Billy Graham's Last Crusade
19 November 2004Billy Graham began his "last crusade" yesterday in Los Angeles, the site of his breakthrough, eight-week tent revival in 1949, which led to 3,000 conversions and launched Graham's evangelical career. Last night, 45,000 people showed up to L.A.'s Rose Bowl staduim to see the 86-year old Graham, who suffers from Parkinson's disease and was brought to the stage by an electric golf cart, deliver some of the same sermons he used 55 years ago. Organizers of the event trained approximately 12,000 volunteers in 19 language to counsel new converts at the crusade, of which there were 2,500 last night.
