This weekend, Will Graham is sharing the Gospel during his two-day Baker Lake Celebration of Hope. The free two-day evangelistic event also will feature music by Aaron Shust.
Baker Lake is near the geographic center of Canada.
On Friday, Will Graham held a presentation specifically for the area's youth.
Psalm 95:1-2 declares, "Oh come, let us sing to the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation! Let us come into His presence with thanksgiving. Let us make a joyful noise to Him with songs of praise!"
Join us in praising God for all the youth who were interested in learning more about God and the love Jesus has for them. More than 100 youth made decisions for Christ on Friday.
When members of the community recognize Will Graham, they sometimes stop him, asking for a moment of prayer. Requests vary, but some recent ones have included physical healing or God’s help to overcome an addiction. Will and his team, honored to be asked, enjoy spending this time with the people they meet.
Excitement was high for these youngsters ahead of Friday's event, which was just for them with music and an encouraging message of God's love.
Friday's special preview included some yummy doughnuts.
