The six-day congress had originally been planned as a grass-roots session on evangelism, a follow-up to the more intellectual World Congress on Evangelism held in Berlin in 1966. But in his welcome, Honorary Chairman Billy Graham promised that the meeting "will affect every religious group in the country in the next decade." Keynoter Oswald C. J.
