International Miracle Service and Evangelistic Ministries' Lead Pastor, Andrew Umoru, has urged churches to incorporate social responsibility alongside their gospel preaching. He emphasized that churches have a duty to address the health, welfare, and other needs of their host communities, stating that preaching salvation should be accompanied by practical interventions to alleviate human suffering.
During a visit to Agbowa-Ikosi, Umoru spoke about the upcoming Agbowa Miracle Crusade, which will include a youth forum, a children's forum, and a free medical outreach. The crusade, themed "Emi Ni: It is I, Be not afraid," aims to provide relief to individuals facing health challenges and economic hardship, with medical professionals offering free healthcare services.
Oba Saheed Momson, the Abowa of Agbowa-Ikosi, expressed support for the initiative and requested increased attention to infrastructure and economic development in the community.
