QUEEN OF PEACE CHILDREN'S HOME & CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER
In the Philippines beginning from 1996, mission centers were built and developed by the Sisters in Dayandang, Bagumbayan, Balatas and Pacol in Naga City, Bicol Province, where the Sisters currently administer Queen of Peace Children's Home, an outstanding nationally and internationally-recognized home and adoption center for over 50 orphans and mentally and physically challenged children, as well as a nursery school, a nutrition feeding program for 55 children, and an outreach ministry for over 250 poor families.
Responding to the needs of poor squatters scavenging in city garbage dumps throughout the Philippines, the Compassionate Sisters have constructed centers where they worked in the Balatas garbage dump-site, the Concepcion Grande Squatter settlement and other depressed areas of Naga City.
Over the years, the CFSOP Sisters have also mobilized and coordinated extensive aid programs to poor schools, barangays, hospitals and colleges, as well as major emergency relief supplies for thousands of typhoon victims, such as in Typhoon Reming and Typhoon Milenio in 2006. In their efforts to serve poor ghetto-communities, the Sisters seek to implement their specific Christian-based H.E.L.P. outreach model of community development among the poor.
