Give
B.A.C.K. "Build A Caregiver Kit"
Date: Saturday
May 3, 2008
Where:
Coastlands Aptos Foursquare Church, 280
State Park Drive, Aptos. Time: 11:00 to 1:30
(Click
here for directions.)
Topic: "Build
A Caregiver Kit"
The challenge: AIDS is the greatest humanitarian
crisis of our time.
Every 14 seconds a child loses a parent to this relentless pandemic. Yet
there is hope. Local volunteers and family members in Africa, Asia, and
Latin America are already caring for people living with HIV. But they
lack even the simplest items needed to prolong lives and comfort the
sick.
The opportunity: We can respond by equipping volunteers who are
caring for those living with AIDS.
Assembling Caregiver Kits is an effective, hands-on way we can:
* Encourage caregivers to continue caring selflessly for their neighbors
* Equip caregivers with the practical materials they need
* Show Christ’s unconditional love to those suffering from AIDS

Topic: Angela
has devoted her life to being a voice for suffering children and travels
the world on humanitarian missions. She has walked over land mines, been
shot at, held babies orphaned by AIDS, met child soldiers and walked
into prisons, brothels and sweat shops where children are abused and
exploited. She is an award-winning speaker who is able to
recreate
her
experiences through her storytelling.
For those of us who have been watching the ongoing tragedies in our
world on television and wondering, ‘How can I possibly help?’—Angela is
able to say, ‘Here’s a way to do it.’" .
