HIV/AIDS and the Faith Community

This 4-page resource explores the U.S. Bishops’ 1987 statement on The Many Faces of AIDS: A Gospel Response.  In this faith-centered document, we are invited to imitate Jesus—to be compassionate to those who suffer from the illness of HIV/AIDS and to be ever mindful that “discrimination or violence directed against persons with AIDS is unjust and immoral.”   Supplemental materials include: a global map highlighting those nations most affected by HIV/AIDS and a chart showing where the 34.2 million people afflicted with HIV/AIDS live, ranking 127 nations.
