Breaking the Yoke of Suffering and Sharing God’s Love with the World

In 1978, Pat Robertson announced on live TV the start of what would become one of the greatest humanitarian organizations in the world: CBN’s Operation Blessing.

Over the past 45 years, Operation Blessing has brought nutritious food, clean water, medical care, disaster relief, and more to people in need across America and around the world. It caught the attention of former presidents Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush. In 1996, Bush stated: “The work you you are doing lifts lives and lends a compassionate hand to the sick. ... I can hardly think of a more worthwhile work. God bless each and every one of you who are supporting Operation Blessing in this mission of mercy.”

Today, Operation Blessing continues to touch lives in America and across the globe by providing desperately needed relief to millions of suffering individuals. Pat’s inspiration for Operation Blessing came while reading Isaiah 58. “If you look after the hungry, if you clothe the naked, if you take the homeless into your house, God says, ‘This is what I’m going to do for you: I’m going to answer your prayers.’”
