LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND — More than 3,500 came to Liverpool, England, for the opening of the God Loves You Tour. Hundreds made life-changing decisions to follow Jesus Christ.
Franklin Graham’s message around the Prodigal Son from Luke 15 touched the hearts of many, with gentle yet bold reminders throughout: “God will forgive you tonight. … If you put your faith in Jesus Christ, He will never leave you.”
Franklin Graham has kicked off his ‘God Loves You’ UK Tour to a packed out exhibition hall in Liverpool in the North West of England.
The rescheduled evangelistic outreach has faced many obstacles after a number of previous venues cancelled over Graham’s stance on Biblical marriage and then the pandemic forced it to be postponed.
But at the opening night of the tour many poured forward in response to the evangelist’s invitation to accept Christ into their lives.
Mr. Graham spoke in Newport in South Wales last weekend and will then travel to Sheffield in the North of England this week with the tour concluding in London in July.
