Companion Synod Worship ToolKit

Our Companion Synod, the Southeastern Diocese of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Southern Africa, on Sunday, December 4th (2011) will include in their liturgy a litany, mindful of the many who are HIV+, those who have developed full-blown AIDS, those who are care-givers, those who treat HIV/AIDS patients, those who do research, and those who have lost family members and friends to AIDS.

The HIV/AIDS Coordinator in the Diocese, whose work we (the SW MN Synod) support, has shared the litany with us that they will be using on the Sunday following World AIDS Day. Please click on the links below.
