It was Billy Graham's ministry...........Franklin has co-opted it and moved it to the far right; about where you sit Neil. Your extremism is getting really old. Wrong again Ted. Samaritans Purse was never Billy Grahams ministry. So typically when you cant prevail in a discussion on facts you attack the messenger with untrue words. Sort of like your hero Obama. Franklins organization has been their for so many people in need and he is a positive force for humanity. Bob Pierce founded Samaritan’s Purse in 1970 with a vision “to meet emergency needs in crisis areas through existing evangelical mission agencies and national churches.” Pierce had previously founded World Vision in 1950. Franklin Graham met Pierce in 1973, and they made several trips together to visit relief projects and missionary partners in Asia and elsewhere. Graham became president of Samaritan's Purse in 1979 following Pierce’s death in 1978. Neil
