Euro '70

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Euro '70 was a major evangelization of the German Evangelical Alliance with the American Baptist preacher Billy Graham , which took place from April 5 to 12, 1970 in the Westfalenhalle in Dortmund and through television broadcasts to over 35 other cities in Germany and Europe over 100,000 people reached.

The event offered a musical preliminary program every evening with the Euro Choir , which was put together especially for the event, under the direction of Klaus Heizmann , followed by the sermon by Billy Graham , which was translated into German by Peter Schneider. Simultaneous translation took place in Croatian, Danish, Dutch, French, Norwegian and Welsh.

ProChrist emerged from the Euro '70 concern in the 1990s .
