European Congress on Evangelism held for first time in 29 years

During June, over 1,000 Christian leaders and evangelists gathered in Berlin for the European Congress on Evangelism, hosted by the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association.

Last held in 1966, it was a significant opportunity to bring together believers from over 50 countries to be reminded of their calling to preach the gospel.

Franklin Graham, son of the late Billy Graham, gave the keynote address and then speakers from across Europe shared messages related to the theme of Proclamation Evangelism. While the Church has many responsibilities and demands upon her, the conference was reminded to never lose sight of the calling to share the good news of Jesus Christ.
