Rev. Wright wants to return to pulpit
Aug 12th, 2008 by Bilal Ali
The first picture of the Rev. Timothy Wright taken after he was critically injured in a car accident shows the famed Brooklyn pastor’s resolve during a rehab session.
The “Godfather of gospel” still cannot breathe, eat or walk on his own, more than a month after the horrific crash that killed his wife and grandson.
Still, in the most dire period of his life, Wright, 61, wants nothing more than to get back in the pulpit, preaching to his loving congregation.
“Can I go to church?” Wright asked his son Tuesday inside his hospital room at a New Jersey rehabilitation center.
“He says that all the time,” David Wright, 30, told the Daily News as he stroked his father’s shoulder.
Wright has been incapacitated since the July 4 accident that took the life of Betty Wright and his 14-year-old grandson, D.J.
