ALBANY, Ga. (WALB) - Former senior pastor of Sherwood Baptist Church Michael Catt has been placed in hospice care.

“Recently, doctors found a tumor in his brain stem. They do not recommend operating on the tumor. Because of this, we have chosen to forego any future cancer treatments with the goal now being to make him as comfortable as possible through palliative care for the few months he has left this side of heaven,” a tweet about Catt said.  

Catt served as senior pastor of Sherwood Baptist Church from 1989 until 2021.

Catt was also heavily involved with Sherwood Pictures. He was executive producer of “Flywheel,” “Facing the Giants,” “Fireproof,” and “Courageous.”
