Dec. 1, World AIDS Day: 5 Things You Can Do

Funeral and mourning…

We are all mourning, mourning the death of -another- young man, another loss on the political scene. Do not misunderstand me: I am not talking politics I am talking about the following: Who has the right to systematically kill one after the other?  We mourn Sheikh Pierre and with him all the others who lost their lives and who were mutilated. We are crying because a country is loosing good people, people who fight for their country and want to give it a brighter future. We want to denounce the violation of the Human Rights. We ask for independence and freedom and free expression of opinion without being threatened or assasinated.

As christians we pray silently, yesterday night we celebrated Eucharist for Lebanon and prayed and still pray, but Lord you do sometimes seem far away…but at the same time I want to cry aloud with Psalm 22. My God have you forsaken us?
