The leader of the Potter’s House megachurch in Dallas, Texas, Bishop T.D. Jake is reported to be stable and receiving medical care, following a health scare during Sunday’s service, according to an official statement from the church.
The church described the incident as a “slight health incident” and assured that Bishop Jakes received immediate medical attention.
“During today’s service, Bishop T.D. Jakes experienced a slight health incident and received immediate medical attention following his powerful hour-long message.
“Bishop Jakes is stable and under the care of medical professionals. The entire Potter’s House family is grateful for the outpouring of love, prayers, and support from the community. Thank you for your understanding and continued prayers”, the Potter’s House said in a short message on its Facebook page.
