A bronzed sculpture of the late Rev. Billy Graham standing in the U.S. Capitol on behalf of his native North Carolina was unveiled at a Thursday ceremony, immortalizing temporally the prolific evangelist also known as “America's Pastor."
Graham's likeness, depicting the Charlotte-born minister with his archetypal gesture toward an open Bible in his hand, was revealed inside National Statuary Hall during a gathering attended by House Speaker Mike Johnson, Gov. Roy Cooper, former Vice President Mike Pence, state congressional and legislative members and Graham's family.
