Evangelicals' Work in Africa Criticized
By KATY POWNALL
Associated Press Writer
ALER, Uganda --
"Telephone to Jesus. Hello?" the children of Aler refugee camp sing,
their bare feet thumping the ground as they dance wildly in their
concrete chapel.
Most camp residents have never used a phone, but they are learning
about Jesus.
The Rev. Graham flew his private jet to East Africa last month with a
20-member delegation, including former Senate Majority Leader Bill
Frist, to check on the work of Samaritan's Purse.
The Rev. Franklin Graham, son of famed evangelist Billy Graham, smiled
as he watched the children -- members of a club run by Samaritan's
Purse, the Christian missionary organization he leads.
