The main speaker was J. Lee Grady, editor of Charisma magazine. Following
his talk, prayers were spoken in 15 languages simultaneously. Worship was
led by Burnaby youth pastor Ben Woodman, who had gathered musicians from a
variety of churches.
Carson also shared his hope of linking with other
cities. George Johnson, veteran senior pastor of Harvest City Church in
Vancouver, had outlined “a vision to link with five sister cities in
different parts of the world,” Carson said.
