ASHEVILLE, N.C. – Hundreds of people are expected to join the Rev. Billy Graham as he reaches a significant milestone Thursday.
The North Carolina-born evangelist turns 95, and a big party is planned to celebrate the occasion.
Graham's son Franklin has said that as many as 700 people have been invited to the party in Asheville.
The Rev. Franklin Graham says among those invited are President Bill Clinton, former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and real estate mogul Donald Trump.
While the elder Graham will attend the party, he is not expected to give a speech. Graham has been hospitalized for a number of health-related issues in the past few years and now uses a wheelchair.
On his birthday, his ministry is scheduled to release a new video of Billy Graham from his home as part of a nationwide religious outreach called "My Hope."
The video features clips of Graham shot this year at his home in Montreat. Also included are clips from his early days when he took his crusades around the nation and the world.
Television stations across the U.S. will air the 28-minute video beginning Thursday night
