Franklin Graham continues spreading the Gospel to every part of the world; this time, he and his team were in Mongolia. But, what is special in their recent outreach is that it was the first evangelistic event in the country. And it resulted in thousands of Mongolians coming to Christ.
Franklin Graham
During the last weekend, more than 17,300 people filled the Steppe Arena in Ulaanbaatar, the capital city of Mongolia, to attend the “Festival of Joy.” Everyone was excited to experience the glory of God in their midst.
“Are you broken in your spirit? Are you spiritually empty? Have you wasted your life? Will you come to Him?” Franklin, president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, invited the crowd to let Jesus enter their lives. He said, “You need Jesus Christ – He is the only way to God.”
And “hundreds of people of all ages” responded to the request as they came to Christ in surrender and repentance.
Mongolians to Christ
The evangelistic crusade is an answered prayer from Mongolian church leaders. For more than 20 years, the local church leaders have been praying that the BGEA would come and lead a revival crusade in the country.
Bayasgalan Lkhagva, one of the Mongolian pastors, expressed his excitement to the evangelistic team. He said, “Evangelist Franklin Graham has been sharing the Gospel in many parts of the world, and we are looking forward to welcoming him to Ulaanbaatar and seeing how God changes lives through the Festival of Joy.”
Consequently, more than 260 church leaders collaborated to make the event successful. And indeed, it was successful because many lives changed because of Jesus.
Franklin shared, “So many people are searching and have an emptiness that they can’t find a way to fill—they don’t even know what they’re searching for. But God loves us and wants a relationship with us. He’s the only one who can fill that void in our lives.”
