The Bóg Cie Kocha Tour with Franklin Graham will visit the TAURON Arena in Krakow on 13 April

A message of hope is coming to Poland

Krakow, Poland, 6 March, 2024 – In every corner of Poland, from Gdańsk to Zakopane and from Zielona Góra to Białystok, hundreds of churches are coming together and supporting the Bóg Cie Kocha Tour, which will bring a powerful message of hope to Krakow this spring.

Wojciech Włoch, pastor of the Church of Jesus Christ in Krakow and chairman of the Church of God’s College of Pastors in Poland, is one of the leaders from the 290 churches and 15 denominations across the country that are supporting the festival which will visit the TAURON Arena on 13 April.

“Our nation is deeply divided. There is so much hatred and fighting around us, even in so many of our own homes and families. It’s a critical problem, and experts and politicians are struggling to find a solution,” said Wojciech Włoch. “I believe many of the issues that we are facing in Poland are ultimately spiritual. This is why hundreds of churches from many different denominations across our country have united around the message of the Bóg Cie Kocha Tour because we believe it can bring the hope and peace that we need in our families and our nation.”

Franklin Graham, president and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, said, “I’m not coming to Poland to talk about religion—religion cannot save you. Your church and your family can’t save you. There is only one thing that can fill the needs of the human heart, and that’s having a relationship with God. This is why I’m coming to Poland—I’m going to share the good news of how we can all have a real and personal relationship with God.”

The Bóg Cie Kocha Tour is free and everyone is welcome to attend. The event will feature live music from three-time Grammy winner, Michael W. Smith, as well as Taya, formerly of Hillsong UNITED and best known for “Oceans,” one of the most popular songs in Christian music history, and CSM, a local Polish band.
