World AIDS Day - Dec 1

December 1 is world AIDS day. Our family is sharing at an event that evening. 7:00pm Westgate Mennonite Collegiate, Winnipeg. We'll talk a bit and share some video clips. A group of Kenyan women who are part of a group called Focus Africa will also be there singing and whatnot.

The "program" goes until about 8:30 and then there are booths and stations where you can interact with stuff. Like, a group of students have learned about VCT (Voluntary Counselling and Testing) and will walk you through what it's like to be tested for HIV/AIDS.

I know the Calgary gang have something up too... here's a link to their info:

The MCC site has some great stuff too: aids.mcc.org
