Voice of the day

Sermons on the causes, prevention, and treatment of AIDS need to be heard from every pulpit. Sex education must be urged as the moral responsibility of parents and teachers. And as public institutions the churches ought to press local, state, and national governments for serious programs seeking prevention and cure.

Joe Nangle, “The Aids Pandemic: Challenge to the Church”

Prayer of the day

Lord, it is so hard for us to see those whom we love suffer. You know what it is to suffer. Help us to minister in loving care, support, and patience for your people who suffer with HIV and AIDS. Lead us to do whatever it will take to eradicate this illness from the lives of those who are touched by it, both directly and indirectly.
National African American Catholic HIV/AIDS Task Force
