People in need lined up on Wednesday morning to receive food and clothing in the Kensington section of Philadelphia.
Members of If Not for Grace Ministries gathered at the corner of Somerset and Kensington avenues to help the community in Kensington.
"They're loyal people and religious people, and that's what Philadelphia needs, a lot more people like these guys right here," said resident Frank Nittie."It's a very big blessing, the simple fact that they come out here, and give food and clothing, and then they pray for people. They don't just cater to people's physical needs, but people's spiritual needs as well," said resident Glenn Jones.
"It's very hard around here, and things got to turn around, things got to turn around and change for the better for the good, and God is great, God is good all the time," said Daniel Pierce with If Not for Grace Ministries.Copyright © 2022 WPVI-TV. All Rights Reserved.
