For 16 years Frank King worked with Samaritan's Purse Canada and the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA) of Canada and now he's hanging up his hat.

King's latest role which he was in for eight years was the News Media Relations Manager, and now he's retiring. 

"It's been a joy and a pleasure to do this job," says King. "It's been a joy to deal with Christian media, particularly like CHVN, because you've been so supportive of not just Samaritan's Purse and the Billy Graham Association but supportive of what God is doing through these organizations."

Luke 12:6-7

Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
