Acting on AIDS

Describe your desire to be involved in Acting on AIDS
A wise man once told a Foellinger Hall full of students, “When you hear what He says, do what He says.” Although I can’t say I have an ignited heart drenched in kerosene for this club and what it stands for, I can say that I feel a certain steady nudge towards becoming more involved. Since praying specifically for “eyes that might see and ears that might hear” the past couple weeks, I have discerned (hopefully correctly) that the certain steady nudge is from God. Well, I heard it; I better do what it says.

Describe your beliefs in reference to Acting on AIDS
Our God cares about us more than a human mind could ever fathom. Jesus took upon Himself all suffering, all injustice, so that we might have a chance to encounter God’s love. Although death has been conquered, the Kingdom of God has not yet become fully realized. This earth is still broken, and it is our privilege as Christ followers to do something about it. Acting on AIDS does something about it.

I have no special skills that might be helpful as Advocacy Chair. I do, however, have the God-given ability to read, speak, and love people. There is also in me a great desire to learn and serve. I offer all I am to Christ and am ready to follow Him in His work through Acting on AIDS.
