People have gone to sleep on HIV. We know more about mad cow disease in England or the bird flu. |
The black churches didn't lead on civil rights, either. Martin stood out there. Then the black churches came along. I believe it's the same thing with HIV. The Balm in Gilead is leading the call. |
The virus wants to survive. The only way the virus can survive is to kill my people. I got to do more. |
There is a lot of good news to report in terms of how far Black ministers have come on the subject of HIV and AIDS. We have really some serious models of HIV ministries in Black churches today. But, certainly there are far too many Catholics who are still not addressing the issues. But we can certainly point to some AIDS ministries with denominational leaders who are actively giving their voice to HIV. There's movement. There's major movement among the Black churches on AIDS and HIV. |
When people believe that God said it, oh Lord. But I do this work because I believe God told me to do it. Maybe he told you something, but told me something different. |
