Kay Warren, AIDS advocate and wife of California megachurch pastor Rick Warren, brought up her personal story of being sexually molested as a child when she addressed a pre-conference of the XVII International AIDS Conference on Friday in Mexico City, Mexico.

“We have to ask ourselves, `What can the church do?”’ she said. “There is only so much governments, NGOs and relief organizations can do. We have to speak up for those who have no voice.”

Warren’s personal struggles with the child molestation she suffered were reported by ABC News last year, as well as in her book, “Dangerous Surrender.”
