Musikee Sexuality workshop
This is one in a series of 9 sexuality workshops conducted by the Church of Christ in Thailand AIDS Ministry. Responses from the participants have been encouraging to the CAM staff to continue providing this type of workshop. Sexuality is a very sensitive issue in the church and just being able to talk openly about sex and the surrounding issues has been enlightening from all who participate. We feel fortunate to facilitate these much needed discussions to help Pastors and other church leaders to speak into the lives of their congregations.

The XIX International AIDS Conference opened in
Washington, D.C., on
Sunday and "is expected to draw 25,000 people, including politicians,
scientists and activists, as well as some of the estimated 34 million
people living with HIV who will tell their stories," Agence France-Presse
reports (Sheridan, 7/22). "Researchers, doctors and patients attending
the world's largest AIDS conference are urging the world's governments
not to cut back on the fight against the epidemic when it is at a
turning point," the Associated Press writes, adding, "There is no cure or vaccine yet, but scientists say they have the tools to finally stem the spread of this intractable virus
-- largely by using treatment not just to save patients but to make
them less infectious, too" (Neergaard, 7/22). "New breakthroughs in
research will be announced, as will new efforts by governments and
organizations to reduce the spread of HIV, to treat those who have it,
and to work, eventually, toward a vaccine and a cure," the Seattle Times writes (Tate, 7/22). According to the Washington Post's "Blog Post,"
three remaining challenges to be addressed at the conference include:
"More research into treatment and prevention, and more ways to deliver
treatments"; reaching marginalized populations, such as men who have sex
with men and sex workers; and "[i]ncreasing funding for PEPFAR and
other anti-AIDS programs" (Khazan, 7/20).
