The number of HIV cases in the Philippines is rising. It is expected to rise in the following months. Last February 2015, there are 646 new cases reported which is 33% higher than the previous year. But another fact that people tend to forget is that 17 people died because of AIDS on the same month raising the number to 1,149 total deaths since 1984. Deaths that could have been prevented if appropriate care were given them. Remember, HIV can be prevented. And so for them and for their families and friends, we remember them on May 15, 2015. On that same day, we also show our support for a better future for People Living with HIV and AIDS.
Let us show our support. Remember them in your prayers. Let us be the church that expresses God's love for everyone.
