Franklin Graham

Evangelistic Ministry

Franklin Graham has devoted his life to proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ and meeting the needs of suffering people around the world. Franklin serves as president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA). His first evangelistic event with the ministry was held in 1989, and since then, he has continued to spread the Good News through hundreds of outreaches around the world.

Last year, Franklin shared the hope of Christ in Milan, Italy; Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia; three cities in New Zealand, six cities across the U.S., and four cities in the United Kingdom—Liverpool, South Wales, Sheffield, and London. Night after night on that four-city tour of the UK, hundreds of people responded to the message of God’s love. This year, Franklin is looking forward to proclaiming that same, simple Gospel message again in London, as well as in Mexico City, Mexico; Seoul, Korea; Essen, Germany; and Rome, Italy.

Billy Graham

Franklin is continuing the lifelong work of his father, Billy Graham, who had a profound appreciation and respect for the UK, and preached here more than any other place in the world outside of the US. Just like his father, Franklin is working with local churches to share with the people of the United Kingdom that God loves them and has a purpose for their lives.

The Lord has placed a burden on Franklin’s heart to proclaim the name of Jesus Christ across the UK, and that sense of purpose and evangelistic passion has continued to grow over the years. Franklin has shared the hope of Christ in Perth, Scotland (1999); Belfast, Northern Ireland (2008); Blackpool, England (2018); and in Liverpool, South Wales, Sheffield, and London in 2022.

In addition to serving as president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, Franklin also leads the international Christian relief and evangelism organization Samaritan’s Purse, which helps meet the needs of refugees, victims of war and natural disasters, the sick, the poor, and the suffering in more than 100 countries around the world.

Under Franklin’s leadership, Samaritan’s Purse has helped more than 10 million people in Ukraine. The organisation has distributed over 50 million kilos of food in Ukraine, and it has operated two Emergency Field Hospitals and six outpatient facilities across the war-torn country. Samaritan’s Purse has also flown 850 tonnes of relief supplies to Ukraine on dozens of airlifts. The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association is also working in Ukraine, where the organisation has trained more than 330 Ukrainian chaplains to share God’s hope in crisis.
