Charlotte’s own pastor, the Rev. Billy Graham, is home after he was released from the hospital Thursday.
Followers of his crusade are lifting up support and prayers for him.
Graham spent two nights at Mission Hospital after he was admitted for tests on his lungs.
Two people who are close to Graham told Channel 9 he got out of the hospital shortly after lunchtime and is home Thursday night and doing well.
Nearly everyone Channel 9 spoke with in Montreat they had heard he was in the hospital in Asheville.
A spokesperson said Thursday afternoon that Graham had gone to the hospital on Tuesday for medical pulmonary tests and stayed two nights.
He was alert the whole time and did not have any problems with the scheduled tests.
Several people said they’ve been praying for Graham, whose 95th birthday is just two weeks away.
“My prayers are he stays healthy and with his upcoming last message that is coming out in November. We’re looking forward to that,” said resident Steve Freeman.
“He is right up the road. His house is built out of an old cabin. He is an iconic figure in America,” said resident Kent
