Church and People Living with HIV in Malaysia |

When their pastor decided to make the commemoration of World AIDS Day part of Advent, how did they feel?

Issues surrounding HIV/AIDS are often perceived as a taboo within churches in Malaysia, clouded by stigma and misconceptions. However, with leadership that follows God’s heart for the needy, this narrative can be turned around. ❤️‍🩹

From laying the groundwork to strategic changes, Bishop Rev. Steven Lawrence and Rev. Francis from the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Malaysia (ELCM) share their humbling experience of drawing nearer to God by getting closer to people living with HIV, leading the congregation to understand what it truly means to put faith into action.

Let us bring joy and love to the marginalised community, just as the good news of Jesus’ birth was shared with the unseen. 🤗
