The sound of worship reverberated throughout ING Arena in Brussels on Saturday night as the name of Jesus Christ resounded through the rafters—and into two overflow areas set up for the Festival of Hope with Franklin Graham.
In this multicultural city that serves as headquarters for both NATO and the EU, over 14,000 people lifted their voices to God in many languages: from Dutch to Spanish.
At one point in the evening, singer/songwriter Charity Gayle led the crowd in “I Speak Jesus.” As soon as it ended, the audience began chanting “Jesus” until their cheers spread from the back of the arena to the front. That prompted the band to repeat the end of the song as the arena shook with praise.
