World AIDS Day

Although it's official observance is on December 1st,
everyday there is a person in the world living with AIDS is a World AIDS Day.

World AIDS Day is an important occasion for building awareness and stepping-up our responses to the HIV/AIDS pandemic in our own communities and around the world.

We continue to stress the importance of the whole church to be significantly engaged in the implementation of the 27th General Synod's resolution, "Calling for Comprehensive HIV Prevention in Church and Community."

As you plan for this global observance, please use the following resources, adapting them according to the needs of your particular context.
