Evangelist Luis Palau died in the early morning on Thursday March 11, 2021, after a long battle with lung cancer. He was 86 years old. His family said, “This is hard news, but Luis is experiencing the beauty of the Lord face to face.”
Palau was recently moved to hospice care at the end of February after taking a turn for the worse at the beginning of the year that required a two-week hospitalization due to lung and heart issues.
In a ChurchLeaders podcast, Palau told his listeners, “In my heart, I always wanted to preach.” And he expressed to leaders, “It’s my greatest passion to say to pastors, ‘You were called by God Himself to be His spokesman.’ “
The memorial website www.luispalau.org was created as a place for people to remember Palau’s life and also provide an area to leave comments.
In 2018, the great evangelist who is known as the Billy Graham of Latin America said in an interview “I know that the Lord is with me by the Holy Spirit indwelling. I’m ready, I know it sounds crazy to say, ‘I can’t wait to go to heaven’ now; it’s a reality for me.’ “
