Group Life 2008 – HIV/AIDS Crisis – John Volinsky

A former pastor who works for World Vision.

Nothing can bring lasting change in the world except the Church of Jesus Christ.

In Acts 2 it says that the people sold their possessions and gave to those in need.

World Vision is the largest Christian relief organization responding to the HIV/AIDS pandemic.

If you talk to the experts, they’re going to say we’re not doing so well in the fight against AIDS. There are over 11 million children who have been orphaned as a result of AIDS in the world.

But there are some encouraging things. World Vision has raised up 60,000 workers in Africa to help them.

We have the army; they need training and supplies.

It would be incredible if every church, small group, and individual who is listening today would get involved. That’s why we’ve partnered with the Willow Creek Association.

For about $700/year, you can supply the needs of a caregiver in Africa.
