(The Christian Post) Franklin Graham, a notable conservative evangelical leader, has been released from the Rochester, Minnesota-based Mayo Clinic, days after undergoing heart surgery.
Graham, who serves as president of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and Samaritan’s Purse, posted an update on his recovery to his Facebook page on Tuesday.
“I wanted to let you know that I was released from Mayo Clinic in Rochester, MN, yesterday, after a specialized surgery last Monday to correct constrictive pericarditis,” the 69-year-old preacher wrote.
“I couldn’t be more grateful to my doctors and the Mayo Clinic team for their excellent care and expertise. The doctors say that I am doing really well and will be able to return to my normal activity and ministry schedule when I’m fully recovered.”
