More than 300 people attended an HIV/AIDS seminar in Papua, Indonesia, where the virus is reaching epidemic proportions. Alliance missionary Todd Adams walked three hours up mountainous terrain to take part in the event. Adams had the opportunity to preach from the Word, and his fellow team members from the Alliance church presented vital information on AIDS prevention, including abstinence, using a booklet, skits, and a video.
“This information is new to these people, and they appreciated the church sending its AIDS team to teach them,” said Adams’ wife, Debbie. “Pray for God’s intervention in the ever-rising AIDS problem in Papua. Pray for the people, many of whom suffer from sickness without adequate medical care.”
