Trump to Honor Rev. Billy Graham in Proposed National Garden of American Heroes

U.S. President Donald Trump’s proposed National Garden of American Heroes will play host to sculptures honoring “great figures of America’s history” with the late Rev. Billy Graham destined to be among them.  

The president revealed the addition on Thursday morning, February 5, while he addressed the bipartisan National Prayer Breakfast in Washington, D.C.  

He shared that the world-famous evangelist preacher was a man “everybody loved” who Trump himself watched as a young boy with his dad when they attended Billy Graham crusades with “60 to 70,000 other people.” 

Graham reached millions with his message of Christian forgiveness and developing a personal relationship with Yeshua Hamashiach, with his commitment to preaching the Gospel in an accessible way making him a national figure, speaking to Americans searching for God.  

Trump remembered Graham as “a very special man” when he died in 2018. The new action reinstates his orders from July 2020 and January 2021 to establish a National Garden of American Heroes.  

This proposed park would showcase 250 statues of American historical figures to celebrate the country’s 250th anniversary, among them Babe Ruth, Harriet Tubman, and Edgar Allen Poe. Now Rev. Billy Graham can be added to that illustrious list. (BB/VFI News)

But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.” - Matthew 9:36-38
