Billy Graham calls thousands to Christ
during record-breaking Calif. harvest

   FRESNO, Calif. (BP)--California's agricultural heartland yielded a harvest of souls Oct. 11-14 as evangelist Billy Graham preached on God's love and the Second Coming of Jesus Christ during a record-setting "outreach" in Fresno.
   Undeterred by a broken foot and unprecedented security precautions, Graham launched the four-day event at Fresno's Bulldog Stadium exactly one month after terrorist attacks struck New York and suburban Washington, DC. The preacher known as "America's Pastor" referred to the tragic events each time he spoke.
