AIDS is a virus that doesn’t recognize any limitations, age, gender, religion, geographical borders, sinner from faithful partner, poor or rich. Honduras reports the highest percentage of infected people.

God worked his ways to train pastor Geovanny in Choluteca, he is a physician who treats and deals with people who just became aware of their infection. This has opened doors to the church in Choluteca to start a project to help entire families who are afflicted by the virus.

Our Casa Hogar Vida project serves parents and children who are infected, and also teaches the community to create awareness of how to avoid getting infected, and to rid of the stigma and discrimination against those who are contaminated. Here are the components of our program:

  • Orphanage (8 orphans)
  • Housing (39 built)
  • Self Support Groups (more than 250 people)
  • Education (3,000 students trained a year)
  • Sports and Recreation Facilities

Since our mission in Choluteca is touching the lives of families affected by HIV/AIDS with the love of Christ, we want to encourage you to take some time today to think and pray about the people who are struggling with this disease daily, and for those who are working worldwide to challenge the grip of poverty that enables its spread.

This information from Compassion International shows the challenge that is before the world in combating the causes and effects of HIV/AIDS…

The lies that poverty tells about HIV and AIDS.

  • HIV testing is unreliable.
  • HIV can be spread by sharing food or hugging an affected individual.
  • HIV is transmitted by mosquitoes.
  • An HIV-positive mother cannot have children.
  • HIV only affects drug users.
  • If an individual is receiving treatment for HIV or AIDS, he or she can’t spread the virus.

We can easily educate ourselves with books, the Internet, visits to the doctor, etc. However, these resources aren’t as readily available to those in the developing world surviving on less than $1.25 a day. The truth about HIV is that it’s a preventable and treatable disease.

So today, I have a very short to-do list for you: Do something to spread awareness about the truth of HIV and AIDS.

It’s a pretty simple task. Here are a few places that’ll help you get started:
