Ist December is International World AIDS Awareness Day. CDII and its We MiND Foundation thanks all those who submitted Messages of Goodwill addressed to the Youth of South Africa and Lesotho to mark this Event ......... Hi to all fighting the good fight, Thanks for this awareness campaign and for the sincere messages of goodwill received from all over the world. As a sports focused ministry we have experienced how the use of sport and games has brought joy, purpose and hope to the marginalized youth of South Africa, especially those in poorer communities. Sport however is just a tool in the hand of the Lord Jesus and we have found that it is only in personal salvation that lasting transformation happens in the lives of individuals. That change then brings transformation to families and communities. As individuals we must overcome our fears of having contact with people or communities who are living with aids and change our attitudes and hearts towards those suffering as a result. We have to love more, share more, give more, go more but most of all pray more for the walls of sin, fear and separation to come down. Psalm 72 v 4 – “He will defend the afflicted among the people and save the children of the needy; he will crush the oppressor.” Andre Kotze, Operation Mobilisation Sportslink South Africa omsouthafrica.org/sportslink Operation Mobilisation works in more than 110 countries, motivating and equipping people to share God’s love with people all over the world.
