What a week it has been here at the Billy Graham Training Center at The Cove.
We are here with our Sowers group volunteering and amazing is about the only word I can think of to describe this place. Charlie is working in the radio station here on the premises, painting the inside of the building. I am working in the administrative building making copies and putting together the training manuals for groups that come here for training.
Today we took a tour of the facilities here and I just have to tell you I was in awe throughout the whole tour. You would not believe the gifts from people in various countries given to the Grahams over the years. We even got to see Billy's office that overlooks the Blue Ridge Mountains. That office is only used by Franklin when he is in town, otherwise it stays vacant and it has the best view in the whole place.
Just seeing the various people that this man Billy Graham has touched gave me chill bumps. I would definitely put this on my bucket list if you'd never been here.
Just to let you know, the steeple in the picture is 80 feet long and the cross on top is 8 feet tall. The chapel was gorgeous, but only used for tours.
