Former NFL player turned megachurch pastor Derwin Gray has spoken about how his church's support of a pregnancy resource center was inspired by his own mother's decision to choose life. Derwin spoke about his personal experience of abortion in an interview this week on EWTN Pro-Life Weekly.
A former linebacker for the Indianapolis Colts, the married father of two studied to become a pastor after leaving the league in 1998. Gray made headlines earlier this year when he announced that his Transformation Church donated had $50,000 to the Women's Enrichment Center, a pro-life pregnancy resource center in South Carolina.

But Gray said that he was surprised the donation went viral because the Christian church has been working with and serving the pregnancy resource center for several years.
