"But we're going to keep his memory alive," Grant said. "We're keeping his message alive and we're keeping this ministry alive." Megan Myers is an associate producer/writer with Fox News Digital Originals.
Grant, who has lived in Gretna, Louisiana all his life, has led seminars on peer mediation to teach conflict resolution and avoid resorting to violence. The pastor also organized a rally calling on church leaders, public officials, law enforcement and community members to work together to prevent gun violence after his own son and namesake, Orin D. Grant Jr., was shot and killed on Aug. 2, 2022, amid the citywide homicide surge.
"My church is not just a church in a city," Grant said. "It's a church for the city."
