Philadelphia Send Relief Serve Tour volunteers bring hope, see dozens of salvations

PHILADELPHIA – Volunteers with Send Relief’s Serve Tour arrived to minister in Kensington, a neighborhood in Philadelphia known as a hotbed for drug abuse and addiction. Theirs was one of the largest projects of the Sept. 15-16 event that occurred in the city.

“There is a huge misconception about people who have addiction issues,” said Gerald Waters, project manager for the Serve Tour event and pastor of Proclamation Community Church in Philadelphia. “They happen to be some of the most gracious and the most receptive to being ministered to that I’ve seen…We were down there as missionaries to share the gospel…We’re down there to be human beings to other human beings.”
