This evening a talk on HIV and the church at the SVD institute for missionary work in Siegburg – St. Augustin. A lively debate and the clear message at the end that we still have to go a way until we accept HIV positive people, also priests and religious without any stigma into the church. Also the question of vocations of HIV positive persons has potential for quite a debate amongst those in charge of the ministries of the church. It is good to know that religious orders are keen to get involved within the church with these questions.
