On November 17, 2019, Will Graham, the great-grandson of Billy Graham and associate evangelist of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA), preached a message about Jesus' cross and love in Chengnan Church in Guang'an, Sichuan province, according to China Christian Council & Three-Self Patriotic Movement.  

This marks the fifth time for the evangelist to give sermons in China. He  has also come in the past in 2012, 2014, 2015, and 2017. 

This four-day trip included six other persons from the BGEA. The delegation was received by the leaders of Sichuan Christian Council & Three-Self Patriotic Movement. 

The delegation also visited Chengdu Shangxiang Church and Chengdu's Museum of Christianity. The museum, initiated by the Chengdu TSPM and officially opened in Dec 2016, exhibits Christian culture, the history of Christianity preached into China up until Chengdu, the former mainstream denominations and missionaries in Chengdu, and Christianity's social contribution to the city. 

Prior to this, Will Graham's last trip to China was on Feb 18, 2017 when he shared the good news in Suzhou, Jiangsu. About 1,8000 attended that evangelistic meeting.
