World AIDS Day

World AIDS Day

Reflection

“We share a common humanity with our brothers and sisters suffering in this epidemic. Ask yourself what you can do as global citizens against the fight against HIV and AIDS. We must never forget our own responsibilities.” –Nelson Mandela

Prayer

Liberating God,

AIDS is a disease still subject to stigma and judgment. On World AIDS Day, inspire us to continue working to eradicate the causes for bias in the ways we see this disease and those it affects. May we follow the examples of those protecting the rights of individuals with HIV/AIDS and those investing in new pathways of care and treatment. May we be committed to lift up our common humanity while remembering our personal responsibilities towards one another, as brothers and sisters, called by you to honor the dignity you have given us all. Amen.
