    (Oklahoma City, Oklahoma-AP) -- The Reverend Billy Graham
    is in Oklahoma City where a four-day mission begins tomorrow
    night.
    The 84-year-old evangelist rode into the Ford Center arena
    on a white golf cart yesterday to discuss the event with a throng
    of reporters and photographers.
    Graham carried a small black bible in his hand and stood
    stiffly before the media after he was helped out of the golf
    cart.
    Organizers are expecting up to 40-thousand people to attend
    each service Thursday through Sunday nights. This is at least
    Graham's fourth visit to Oklahoma City. His last visit followed
    the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, when he preached during a service
    with President Clinton.
    He has visited the Oklahoma City Bombing National Memorial
    twice during his latest visit.
    There were missions, then called crusades, in 1956 and
    1983.

    Lets hope that many thousands come to accept Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour at the meetings.
