Join the World AIDS Day Prayer Vigil, Dec. 1

Sign up below for a one-hour time slot during the 24-hour vigil for World AIDS Day. 

World AIDS Day is held on December 1 each year. It is an opportunity to raise awareness, commemorate those who have died, and celebrate victories such as increased access to treatment and prevention service. The theme for this year's World AIDS Day is "Take the rights path." As UNAIDS explains, "With human rights at the center, with communities in the lead, the world can end AIDS as a public health threat by 2030."

Maryknoll missioners around the world participate in HIV AIDS ministry.

• Read Maryknoll Sister Connie Krautkremer's recent scripture reflection on her ministry to those with HIV AIDS in Tanzania.
• Pray with and share the Maryknoll AIDS Task Force prayer. 
• Sign up for an hour-long slot for the 24-hour prayer vigil for those living with HIV and AIDS and for those whose lives were cut short due to HIV or AIDS. The vigil will begin at 12am ET on Sunday, December 1.
