The initial diagnosis came during Bishop Trotter’s annual physical in March of 2013 and was confirmed by tests. Doctors have informed Bishop Trotter that the cancer is in its earliest stages and that his prognosis is good.

“Thanks to routine screening this was diagnosed early and I expect a full and speedy recovery,” says Bishop Trotter. Trotter adds, “After reviewing all the options with multiple physicians, I decided to take a proactive approach and have surgery.”

“Additionally, I am encouraged that God will heal me of this as he has done other illnesses in the past. Sweet Holy Spirit Church and friends are fighting with and for me…I KNOW A MAN”.

Bishop Trotter has pledge to become a public voice and an advocate for early testing for Prostate Cancer. Prostate cancer is relatively common, with more than 200,000 men diagnosed each year. About one in six men develop the disease but far fewer – about one in 33 – die from it. Prostate cancer is generally slow growing and can be detected through routine tests, according to the Prostate Cancer Foundation.

We send our prayers to Bishop Trotter and wish him a successful surgery.
