During his ministry, Billy Graham traveled all around the globe, speaking to an estimated 215 million people in live audiences in 185 countries.

In 1984, he held a Crusade in our nation’s 49th state in Anchorage, Alaska.

While there, he spoke to a packed Sullivan Arena as people came from all over the state to see him preach.

During that crusade, Mr. Graham was given this gold pan. The pan is engraved:

“Dr. Billy Graham—In Appreciation for an Opportunity to Serve Our Lord with You—Anchorage Police Department Security Team Alaska Crusade March 11-18, 1984.”
