Mid-Week Service Prayer  

Prayer for Unity in the Face of AIDS
 

We pray for the unity of all faiths, that we may find a unified and nonjudgmental way to fight this disease of HIV/AIDS. 

Lead us out of passivity and old-fashioned attitudes.Replace ignorance with education.

Teach the young self-worth and strength, the
strength of self-discipline.

Teach the old new ways of caring and compassion.
 

We pray for the commitment of time and money that will provide crisis intervention, professional guidance,
community seminars and outreach programs to provide alternatives
 to the harmful enticements of the streets. 

Grant us, together, acknowledgment of what is and what is not, as well as a vision of what can be.
