THE Archbishop of York has praised the American preacher Billy Graham, who has died aged 99.
Dr John Sentamu first met him when he was a priest in Africa.
He said: “Wherever people remember Billy Graham today, there will be gratitude for this faithful servant of Christ, for his bold witness, and for the legacy of changed lives and communities which continues to spread hope, transformation, and a living story of salvation today.
“I thank God for his witness and for his example.
May he rest in peace, and rise in glory!”
