Praise Report: Megachurch Pastor Robert Morris Released From the Hospital
Gateway Church pastor and founder Robert Morris was released from the hospital late Sunday night, one week since an air ambulance rushed him to the medical center for emergency surgery.
Morris underwent multiple surgeries to remove a blood clot and stop internal bleeding from a surgery April 2 to remove multiple hernias.
Gateway Church, a Spirit-filled congregation in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, immediately launched prayer campaigns with campus intercession, as well as online sign-ups for hourly prayer slots.
Debbie Morris, Morris’ wife, kept the world updated through social media. From one of the most recent posts:
“Praise Be To God! I love that we could attend church even from the hospital.
Here’s the scoop: @psrobertmorris is getting out of the hospital tomorrow!
While my heart is gushing with gratitude, allow me to gush on. Our family. Our kids have stepped up, lead, served, prayed, preached, ran errands and given me breaks. All of our extended family went the extra mile when needed.
All the ministering angels dressed as doctors, paramedics, and nurses. They were apart of saving his life.
Our church family and the entire body of Christ. You have been so truly amazing. We have felt so loved. Your prayers have been so important—they mattered.
Our elders. They have cared for us so beautifully while caring for Gateway with extraordinary care. I can’t tell you how comforting it is to have Pastor Jimmy Evans to step in for a while to allow Robert to recover.
We will prayerfully move out of hospital tomorrow but @psrobertmorris has a road to full recovery that they tell us could take months.
We are so grateful to be out of great danger but please keep praying for @psrobertmorris.”
