Between 800 and 1,000 people attended a Sunday Christian revival event at Ohio State University (OSU), which several of the school’s football stars led.

Buckeyes running back TreVeyon Henderson, wide receiver Emeka Egbuka, defensive end JT Tuimoloau, and former wide receiver Kamryn Babb were among the players who led the service, which ended with at least 60 attendees getting baptized, OSU’s student newspaper, the Lantern, reported.

Prayers, worship songs, and Bible handouts were part of the faith event, which also featured the players’ firsthand faith experiences.

Babb, whose football career was brought to a halt by serious knee injuries, told the crowd that he did not come to terms with how “broken” he was before he felt “the weight, the love, the grace, the mercy of God wrap [him] like a blanket.”
