He is a graduate of the Stamps Baxter School of Music. However, Brian's first calling is to preach and the Lord has blessed him to be able to preach in many different areas.

NRB presents the Milestone Award
to Evangelistic Outreach

President and CEO of NRB, Frank Wright (left) and NRB Chairman Bill Skelton (right), presents the Milestone Award to Dr. Calvin Ray and Kandi Evans.

The year was 2009 when the National Religious Broadcasters Association, dedicated to religious integrity and accountability, recognized Evangelistic Outreach for having been broadcasting for over 50 continuous years. We were humbled and honored. Because of the integrity surrounding the NRB, a ministry must be nominated by someone other than the actual ministry. Our dear friend, Roger Manning of Mortenson Broadcasting, wrote to the NRB nominating us for the Milestone Award. After confirming the years of broadcasting, the NRB graciously acknowledge our ministry for the many years of service to the Lord.

As Calvin Ray says many times, "We are reaping what we did not sow." Please know that it is because of your love and support that we are so blessed these many decades. Even though Dr. Calvin and Doris Evans could not be there to receive the award, they are experiencing the great reward!

 All glory and praise belongs to God. As Calvin Ray approached the podium to accept this great honor from the NRB, he thanked you, our ministry partners, for your friendship, his mother and father for their love and guidance, and gave God the praise for His goodness.
