Franklin Graham Kicks Off 2007 Festivals in Panama

Evangelist Franklin Graham kicks off an ambitious preaching schedule this year with a three-day festival in Panama today.

This is the first time Graham will be holding his world-renowned evangelistic festival in the Central American country and so far, the weather is treating the Graham team well. The days are hot and the evenings are like spring-time weather, according to Graham's spokesperson Jeremy Blume.

With the support of 747 area churches, Graham, 54, is scheduled to preach the gospel for the next three nights at Estadio Nacional de Panama (National Stadium in Panama), which seats nearly 30,000 people. He will be accompanied by musical artists Marcos Witt, Marcos Vidal and Crystal Lewis.
