Tv Reverend Billy Graham (99) dead

The American evangelist Billy Graham has passed away.

Graham may rightly be called the father of mass evangelism. In an American way, the Billy Graham Evangelization Organization screens with dizzying figures. According to that foundation, the Baptist predecessor has proclaimed the gospel to more than 210 million people in 185 countries and territories. And with that comes the hardly to be counted who heard his words via radio, television or internet.

William Franklin Graham was born on 7 November 1918 as the son of a conservative, evangelical farmer in Charlotte, North Carolina. He also became a theologian, author and activist.
