Dear Men, 

Frank was a dedicated Christian and a hard working dairy farmer in the Charlotte, North Carolina area. In May 1934, an all-day prayer meeting of Christian businessmen was held in the pasture of Frank’s farm. At that meeting a man named Vernon prayed for God to raise up someone from Charlotte, North Carolina who would take the Gospel to the ends of the earth. 

As Vernon beseeched the Lord for this, little did he know that Frank’s lanky, mischievous teenage son, likely carrying out afternoon chores in the barn that day, would be the answer to his prayer. Later that year Frank’s son was saved at a revival meeting and this young man with a changed heart would go on to preach to millions and carry the Gospel to far reaching places. This young man’s name? Billy Graham.  

Just as God heard and answered the prayers of a group of men who gathered on a farm for a little prayer meeting in North Carolina, He delights to hear and answer our prayers. We invite you men to join us in beseeching our loving Heavenly Father together at our Men’s Autumn Prayer Summit. Three weeks from today we plan to gather as men in the Northwoods of Michigan October 1–3, 2026 for a time of encouraging fellowship and earnest prayer.
