The octagonal building houses a 400-seat theater and is surrounded by a garden. A 100-foot tower nearby is topped by a golden sunburst.

  • THE FILM. The 28-minute movie, "Man in the Fifth Dimension," is shown on a 50-foot "wrap-around" screen once every hour. Graham's own narration is translated simultaneously into French, German, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese and Russian. For those who accept his invitation to receive Christ, counsel and religious guidance are offered.
  • INTERNATIONAL MINISTRY. In the garden and exhibit galleries, photographs show the scope of Billy Graham's work. In the entrance gallery is a transparent globe showing the places to which he has carried his Crusade for Christ.
