He is recognised by the Church to have the heavenly capacity to intercede on behalf of the faithful. Christians from around the world pray with him. His feast day is October 11, the same day Vatican II was officially opened. It has become a reminder of his vision of a universal church.

All of Graham’s books have made millions, just because of his recognition throughout the world. Billy has impacted everyone from the poorest person to the President of the United States (Raphael 1).
I had volunteered before at the YMCA but this was my first time volunteering for a daily summer program. On the first day, I got all spiffed up.

They not only shared the gospel in these places, but they also established churches as well. Everywhere they traveled, one thing was obvious, they were evangelizing and preaching the word of God and raising people up to keep the church alive while they were gone. This tie in with Paul’s letter writing and even his epistles because everything he did even in later life was to help raise others up in the church and to save souls for the Kingdom of God.
