Mark’s Story

On Saturday night, Mark* and his two young children came to the Bonnetts Energy Centre in Grande Prairie expecting a hockey game.

When Mark went to buy tickets, he learned their anticipated game was actually happening the following weekend. That weekend, over two nights, 9,000 Grande Prairie residents had gathered for the Look Up Celebration with Will Graham. Although disappointed, when volunteers invited the family to stay and join the celebration instead, they gave it a chance.

Mark may have had plans for his night, but God had plans for his eternity.

About Celebrations and Festivals

For over 60 years, the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association of Canada has been dedicated to proclaiming the Good News of Jesus Christ to all nations. Evangelistic Festivals with Franklin Graham and Celebrations with Will Graham have reached millions of people with the life-changing message of God’s love and salvation.

Through dynamic preaching, uplifting music, and heartfelt worship, we have witnessed countless lives transformed, souls saved, families restored, and communities revitalized by the power of the Gospel. But this work is far from over. There are still countless souls yearning for the hope and purpose that only Christ can offer.

All Things Work Together for Good

Inside the arena, Christian artists Katy Nichole, The Afters, High Valley, and Rend Collective led worship, and Will spoke about Jesus’ death, burial, resurrection, and the eternal hope offered by accepting Him.

“Salvation is a person. Jesus died for your sin because He loved us. He took all our junk and placed it on Himself so you and I could go free. In return, He gave us His righteousness and perfection,” said Will.

As he spoke, the Holy Spirit was at work in Mark’s heart. When Will invited the crowd to place their trust in the Lord, Mark was among those who came forward and surrendered his life to Jesus Christ.

We may not always know the plans and intentions God has for us, but we can rest assured that they are good plans. “All things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose” (Romans 8:28, NKJV).
