More Than 500 Attend 9th Annual Ladies Tea & Tour
The 9th annual Ladies Tea & Tour, hosted by the
Billy Graham Library
, was held Saturday, April 16. The ticketed event drew more than 500 people. One woman (second from the left) wanted to see the Billy Graham Library for her 80th birthday, so her daughters and granddaughter made a trip of it. They made their hats in the car on the way down.
The Ladies Tea is a time for fellowship, worship and reflection.
No stranger to the Graham family, Sheila Walsh has performed at many Billy Graham Crusades, including at London’s Wembley Stadium in 1989. On Saturday, she shared some of
her story
with the ladies in attendance.
A warm welcome.
Sisters, an award-winning group out of South Carolina, led the ladies in worship with their blend of gospel music.

Getting first-class service.
Letting the music and message sink in.
Happy to be here!

Sheila Walsh, who has been open about her
experience with depression
, focused her talk on "finishing the race well."

Many in attendance came in groups with friends and family.

Sheila Walsh counts Ruth Bell Graham as a mentor, remembering her as “such a godly influence in my life.” On Saturday, Sheila stole a few quiet minutes at Ruth Graham's burial site.
