'Decision America' tour at Capitol Tuesday

The Rev. Franklin Graham will speak at noon Tuesday on the Missouri Capitol south steps as part of his "Decision America" tour.

This stop in Jefferson City is part of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association's goal of conducting prayer rallies in each of the 50 states, which began in February and runs through mid-October.

"America's attention is on this election year, but I do not believe Republicans or Democrats or any other party can turn this nation around," the association's president said in a news release. "Only God can. God hears the prayers of his people, so we'll be calling on Christians in every state to pray fervently and faithfully for America."

He said in an online posting that the Decision America Tour "will not endorse political candidates or legislation, and no candidates or current public officials will speak at any of the rallies."

However, he added, "I'm going to every state in our country to challenge Christians to live out their faith at home, in public and at the ballot box - and I will share the Gospel."
