This Sunday, May 17, Franklin Graham and Cissie Graham Lynch Join Rededicate 250 to Give Thanks to God and Seek His Forgiveness and Mercy for America

BGEA Staff : May 15, 2026  Billy Graham Evangelistic Association

"Every generation must choose what it will stand for. We have fallen so far from the Christian values and morals that this country was founded on, but we have an opportunity before us to consider once again what kind of a nation we will be..." -Cissie Graham Lynch

This Sunday, Franklin Graham and Cissie Graham Lynch will be part of Rededicate 250, a national jubilee held in Washington, DC. This time of prayer, praise, and thanksgiving will take place on the National Mall as people around the country are invited to reflect on God's providence over our nation and ask for His continued protection and guidance.

"I hope that everyone will come out and join with Americans from across the country for this historic event to rededicate our lives and our nation back to God," Franklin Graham said.

Throughout the event, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.ET, attendees will hear from Christian speakers, pastors, notable leaders, music ensembles, and worship artists—all acknowledging God's mercy and blessings on the US and honoring those who have made great sacrifices for our freedom. They will share stories of courage and solidarity from key moments in our nation's history, including our founding, the Civil War, the Civil Rights Movement, and 9/11.

"Every generation must choose what it will stand for," said Cissie. "We have fallen so far from the Christian values and morals that this country was founded on, but we have an opportunity before us to consider once again what kind of a nation we will be.

"My prayer is that we will be the generation that will return to the God who made America strong and free," she continued. "My prayer is that we will grab hold of this moment and boldly use our God-given rights to live out our faith in Jesus Christ and carry the Gospel to the next generation." (Image: BGEA)

Franklin Graham will share a message via video, immediately followed by a prayer from Cissie Graham Lynch on the Mall at 2:50 p.m.
