God of mercy and love,
for all who live with HIV or AIDS.
Grant them loving companions
who will support them in the midst of fear,
that every day may be lived
with courage and faith.
Bless them with an abundance of your love,
that they may live
with concern for others.
Pour on them the peace and wholeness,
which you alone can give.
Through Jesus
who came to give us abundant life.
