UK Church Must 'Wake Up' to Aids Pandemic
A new report from Christian Aids charities is a major wake-up call to the UK church to get more involved in the worldwide Aids pandemic, Samaritan's Purse International UK has said.
Most churches and ministers felt the British churches' response to HIV and Aids was inadequate, the Christian HIV & Aids Alliance report revealed. Less than half of respondents indicated that HIV and Aids was a key global issue.
Thirty-one per cent of those surveyed said that more should be done and 40 per cent stated that more could be done, yet only five per cent of churchgoers were involved in the issue themselves.
