Sr. Mary Elizabeth Lloyd - AIDS Orphans Rising

January 22, 2008 by Victor Volkman.

Juanita Watson of Inside Scoop Live! interviews Sister Mary Elizabeth Lloyd, author of the new book AIDS Orphans Rising: What You Should Know and What You Can Do to Help them Succeed. Sister Mary Elizabeth Lloyd has been helping the orphans and the Child Headed Households of the missions of the Religious Teachers Filippini for the past 12 years. Her experiences in Albania, Brazil, Ethiopia, Eritrea and India have spurred her on to produce this work. Sister Mary Elizabeth holds a doctorate degree in Nutrition and Public Health from Columbia University. 100% of the profits from this book will go to help the orphans.

Every 14 seconds a Child Headed Household is formed

The death of parents from AIDS leaves behind little children, often four or five of them, who desperately want to stay together as a family. In the literature, they call them Child Headed Households. Imagine watching your mother and father slowly die before your eyes, leaving you to bury them and then to raise and care for your younger brothers and sisters. AIDS Orphans Rising takes you through the daily lives of these children.By 2010, there will be 25,000,000 AIDS orphans! Left alone, they will be uneducated, disenfranchised, and unwanted: ripe candidates for radicalization and exploitation by dictators and terrorists. If good people like yourself do not reach out to these children so they can get love, an education and set up in some profitable enterprise, civilization will deteriorate to a point that you will not even recognize it.

A Map for how to make the journey from head to heart and then integrate the two so that the power of ego is diminished and the Authentic Self can emerge to live and work from the power of the human spirit.

A Reference book that may be used for many years to come as the reader meets life’s challenges with success that satisfies both the head and the heart.

Journey from Head to Heart is exactly that, integrating logic, reason, emotion, spirituality, Christianity, science, and ancient wisdom from a variety of sources to create a recipe for wholeness.
