The World Council of Churches has liturgical materials related to HIV/AIDS on their web site. Visit www.wcc-coe.org to find Africa Praying: A Handbook on HIV/AIDS Sensitive Sermon Guidelines and Liturgy.

Church leaders are learning to address the needs of those affected, and minister to the infected as HIV/AIDS continues to spread around the world. This resource book is divided into five sections, giving sermon guidelines and worship outlines for services ranging from weddings to funerals, key times such as Christmas and Easter, addressing attitudes of compassion or discrimination, working with a congregation peopled by youth or grandparents, and the social realities of poverty and gender inequality.
