Controversial Evangelical Franklin Graham In Capital
Phnom Penh: Evangelical ‘born again’ American Christian preacher, missionary and wealthy businessman, Franklin Graham is due to speak in Phnom Penh next month, as earlier reported.
The event has is taking place at Phnom Penh City Center Golf Driving Range on 7-8 December.
There will be much proselyting at the free event with one Christian group saying
“We have been planning initially to provide a Gospel of John along with discipleship materials of the Graham Organization, provided at every one of their festivals; it’s called ‘Living in Christ’, and this will be given (a booklet combined with the Gospel of John) to everyone who does come forward and make a decision for Christ at the two nights of the festival.”
Graham is the son of famous preacher Billy Graham.
He has courted controversy with his outspoken views on Islam, homosexuality, race relations and right wing politics, as well as his large salary drawn from his tax-free charity status non-profits.
There will also be musicand performances at the free event, and lots of praying.
The team announced”Transportation assistance is available on application forms for congregations that will bring unbelieving friends and family to the festival.”
Thank you for sharing about the Love Phnom Penh Festival.
I would like to share a correction to the location for the Love Phnom Penh Festival that you noted above.
The Love Phnom Penh Festival will take place at the Phnom Penh City Center Golf Driving Range (search PPCC Golf in Google maps).
Doors open at 4:30pm!
It’s actually the same place (City Golf on Google Maps), but happy to edit.
Sorry, it is not the same place. City Golf Club is north.
The Phnom Penh City Center is near Eden Garden. Just Southeast of TVK Station Tower.
“PPCC Golf” in Google maps.
Sorry, but it is (unless Google is lying, or there are 2 Love Festivals with Franky Graham on the same day in different golf clubs in Russey Keo).

It’s not in Russey Keo. It is in Sangkat Srah Chak.
Phnom Penh City Center (Boeung Kak)
Near where Eden Garden is located.
