A Prayer for World AIDS Day

A Collect for World AIDS Day

Loving God, You provide comfort and hope to those who suffer. Be present with all HIV positive persons and their families in this and every land, that they may be strengthened in their search for health, wholeness and abundant living, through Christ our Companion. Amen.

Merciful God,
we remember before you all who are sick this day,
and especially all persons with
aids or hiv infection.
Give them courage to live
with their disease.
Help them to face and
overcome their fears.
Be with them when they
are alone or rejected.
Comfort them when
they are discouraged.
And touch them with your
healing Spirit that they may find and
possess eternal life, now and forever.
Amen
