A grandson of the late evangelist Billy Graham has been released from the hospital after battling what is reported to be the Delta variant of the coronavirus.
Jonathan Lotz, son of Anne Graham Lotz, was admitted to the intensive care unit last month in critical condition as he battled COVID-19 and pneumonia, according to his mother.
She wrote at the time – “Fifty years ago I could hold my son in my arms. Now I have placed him in the arms of Jesus. I am asking you to please pray for Jonathans swift healing and recovery. For the glory of God’s great name.”
In an announcement Sunday evening, Graham Lotz posted to Facebook that her son was discharged from the hospital and home in Raleigh, North Carolina.
“Praise God!” she declared in her update. By Monday morning, the post had around 28,000 “likes” and 25,000 “loves.”
“God has heard and answered your prayers for my son!” she added.
She also asked social media fans to “continue to pray for his swift recovery and restoration to full health with no setbacks or complications.”
On July 24, Graham Lotz posted to social media that her son was admitted to the hospital “in critical condition” as he suffered from COVID-19.
Last Wednesday, Graham Lotz shared that her son had been moved out of the ICU and was undergoing rehab for COVID-19, giving praise to “our prayer-hearing, prayer-answering God!”
Jonathan Lotz continues his grandfather’s legacy by preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ worldwide through Jonathan Lotz Ministries.
