CNN - Evangelist Oral Roberts dead at 91
CNN reports: "In 1947, he founded the Oral Roberts Evangelistic Association in Tulsa, 'and began conducting crusades across America and around the world, attracting crowds of thousands -- many who were sick and dying and in search of healing,' the biography said. 'Through the years, he conducted more than 300 crusades on six continents' and 'laid hands' on an estimated 2 million people, according to association officials."

Comment: Many of his followers lost faith in his leadership after his 1986 "God will call me home" fundraising plea, but there's no doubt that he was an evangelist who took the gospel message to millions of people all over the world.
