Former Football Star Announces Opening of Children’s Hospital

Colossians 3:17 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

Former football star Tim Tebow, roundly attacked by anti-Christianists for the open displays of his faith in his life, has announced that a children’s hospital is opening in the Philippines.

The Tim Tebow Foundation said that the former quarterback has been working since 2011 to build and obtain the operating license from the Philippine Health Department.  The hospital is already working to help impoverished children but will officially have a “grand opening” in spring 2015.

The five-story hospital was built in conjunction with CURE International, a non-profit that works to provide medical care for impoverished children.  The hospital will have 30 beds, three operating rooms and a staff of over 50.

“I have always had a great love and passion for the Filipino people,” Tebow, the founder of the foundation, said in a statement. “It is so exciting to be able to provide healing and care for these incredibly deserving children halfway around the world.”

With the opening of the Tebow CARE Hospital, the group will now have 12 hospitals around the world to help children in need.

  1. Mr Tebow,
    Your are a shining example of the pride we ALL should feel when we are representing our Father in Heaven. I see it and to me its very beautiful. No different than the cross I wear around my neck. After all it is God who has blessed us with His love. We show our love or Him with NO SHAME. Thank you for standing up for our Father and faith. God bless you ad your family and the hospital.
    Sincerely, Tina Aguilera.
