[Worship] an item of praise
Hey gang,
I just wanted to share a quick item of praise. It's not a praise related
topic, but we can praise God for what did happen.
For the past 4 days, Billy Graham was in Ottawa (Canada) leading evangelistic
mission meetings (we called it a "mission" instead of a "crusade"). Here are
some statistics:
Outdoor
Arena Overflow Attendance Comment
------ -------- ---------- -------
Thursday, June 25 18,000 2,000 20,000
Friday, June 26 18,000 4,000 22,000
Saturday, June 27 12,000 12,000 children's morning
Saturday, June 27 18,500 6,500 25,000* youth concert
Sunday, June 28 18,500 8,500 27,000*
----------
106,000
* broke attendance record for Corel Centre arena (previously 20,000); indoor
seating capacity is 18,500.
Over 9,000 people responded to Billy's invitation over the mission period to
commit themselves to Christ (either for the first time, or a rededication).
AWESOME TIME!!!
Just thought I'd share the good news,
Timo
