Catholics living with HIV, those working in HIV prevention and care in local agencies, and volunteers, will celebrate the annual Mass to mark World AIDS Day on Sunday, 2 December 2012, 5pm, at the Church of Our Lady of the Assumption & St Gregory, Warwick Street, Soho, London W1B 5NB. The Mass will be celebrated by Fr John Creagh, a priest member of the Mill Hill Missionaries, a religious community working predominantly in African countries. Fr Creagh worked in Kenya for some time and is now an NHS mental health chaplain, also offering pastoral support at London's Mildmay Hospital, in Shoreditch.
CAPS, a national registered charity, offers peer support to people living with HIV who wish to integrate their faith with this experience through its Positive Catholics ministry. It draws people from a variety of backgrounds to a range of activities including monthly meetings and weekend retreats.
