Exegesis
The dative phrase tois hagiois {τοῖς ἁγίοις | toîs hágiois} identifies the beneficiaries of this service as ‘the holy ones’, that is, the believers in Jerusalem. In English, the participial nuance is most naturally represented with an infinitive or purpose phrase (“to minister,” “to serve”), which captures the forward-looking intent of the journey while keeping the sentence clear and fluent.
In context — Romans 15:25
But now I am going to Jerusalem to minister to the saints .
