The Rev. Herman Browne voluntarily quarantined himself for 21 days after his wife’s friend tested positive for Ebola. On Oct. 19, he returned to his church, Trinity Cathedral, in Monrovia, Liberia to preach to his congregation about Ebola prevention, National Public Radio reports.
Browne began educating his congregation about Ebola long before it affected the family directly. And it’s clear the message has been received at the church. People sanitize their hands before entering the cathedral. A priest delivers the Holy Communion wafers with tweezers. The church program tells the congregation: “Do not hide sick persons.”
