An ecumenical service at St. Mark's Lutheran Church, S.F. A service of remembrance and hope. I will be one of the storytellers, after spending nearly 20 of first years of this epidemic as a healthcare provider.
It is extremely important for religious entities to be involved in a non-judgmental, welcoming, and affirming, especially in light of HIV. Especially, in my experience, so many POC with HIV either remain church connected to, or conflicted by some denominations stand on homosexuality. Contrary to the uninformed beliefs of many, not all Christian denominations condemn homosexuality. Like the democrats, I fear that we, progressive Christians, don't make as much noise! In Oakland, CA, the HIV prevelance continues among African Americans and with new cases, women. The straight to gay ratio is nearly parallel. As in southern hemisphere countries, HIV is not just a disease of homosexuality. Ok. I'm done ![]() |
