(CNN) — Civil rights leader Rev. Jesse Jackson remains in stable condition on Monday and will be moved out of the ICU later in the day, according to an update from the Rainbow Push Coalition.

Jackson, 84, a protégé of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., will remain at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago, Illinois, where he is under observation for progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), the update added.

“We believe in the power of prayer, and we are grateful for the overwhelming outreach and prayers of the faithful,” Jackson’s son, Yusef, said in a statement. “Our father is alert and continues to share his vision for churches and pastors to come together and reduce malnutrition during this period.”
