Theme: “Changing Lives, Changing the World”
Operation Care-Philippines left an indelible impact of an eternal positive change in the lives of thousands of children in the Philippines during our July 5th, 2008 outreach held at Iloilo City, Philippines.In spite of the huge flood (brought by typhoon Frank two weeks before the event) that devastated not only the city of Iloilo but the whole Visayas Region in the Philippines and left all our volunteers, Pastors, and partners practically themselves “homeless”, the event was a huge success for the glory of God! 2,000+ hungry, homeless, orphans, and street children came practically looking forward for a miracle, and they got it!

Over two thousand homeless, hungry and flood-weary kids from Ioilo City and other neighboring towns jammed the Promenade Hall at the Central Philippine University on July 5, 2008 for the Operation Care - Philippines Project.
With the theme, "CHANGING LIVES, CHANGING THE WORLD", the event's goal is focused on bringing change to the lives of these homeless, least fortunate children in the province by providing them with medical assistance, entertainment, food and gifts, and the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
"Our goal in this ministry is to meet both the physical and spiritual needs of these kids,." Susie Jennings explained. Miss Jennings, a Filipina immigrant and nurse by profession, is the Founder and President of Operation Care - Dallas, a non-profit organization in Dallas which seeks to minister to various needs of the city's homeless people. Operation Care Philippines Project is the organization's outreach mission. The Central Philippine University College of Nursing Class 1978 also joined hands with Operation Care Dallas n launching this project.
