The final
pre-rally
for Festival '98 took place on the campus of the
University of New Mexico in the most
visible, accessible part of
the campus. We were right in front of the Student Union
Building
with Miss Angie and her band. The rally was well received, with great
music
and free food and an invitation to Festival '98.

The crowd was definitely divided.
This
man was upset that Christians would use a free rock concert and free food to
lure college students to the Franklin
Graham Crusade. How awful of us! Imagine
wanting to
give hope to a generaion of young people who live in society with no
moral
absolutes and no sense of right and wrong. That's done a
lot for our country, hasn't
it?

But this woman had an answer to his
protests --
her sign reads "Its a gift". The "free" concert
and
food were merely a shadow of the free gift of God's salvation in
Jesus Christ. And
as witnessed during Festival '98, many
people received that free gift and now have a
living hope!
