Philippine International AIDS Candlelight Memorial 2026

May 19, 2026
M.I.C.E Quezon City

In a moment filled with prayer, remembrance, and hope, the International AIDS Candlelight Memorial was solemnly commemorated last May 19 at the Quezon City Hall M.I.C.E. Center. 🕯️❤️

The activity gathered members of the Quezon City Government, The Camillian Fathers, healthcare advocates, partner organizations, and communities united in one mission to honor the memories of those who passed away due to AIDS and to continue spreading awareness, compassion, and acceptance for people living with HIV.

The program featured heartfelt messages from health leaders, advocates, and community partners who emphasized the importance of breaking stigma, strengthening education, and ensuring accessible HIV services for everyone. Stories of courage and resilience from individuals living with HIV became powerful testimonies of faith, healing, and hope despite life’s struggles.

One of the most moving parts of the memorial was the Quilt Ceremony, where names and memories of loved ones lost to AIDS were remembered with dignity, silence, and prayer. Each candle lit symbolized not only grief, but also love, solidarity, and the continuing call to care for one another as one community.

As we remember those we have lost, may we also continue becoming instruments of God’s compassion by choosing understanding over judgment, kindness over discrimination, and love over fear.
