Red Wednesday Prayer Vigil Nov. 18

We invite you to join us for a Prayer Vigil on Red Wednesday, November 18, 7 p.m., at St. Joseph’s Basilica in solidarity with persecuted Christians around the world. Fr. Jim Corrigan will be the celebrant.

Four hundred and thirteen million Christians live in countries where religious freedom is severely violated. Two hundred and twenty million face direct persecution.

Red Wednesday will be marked across Canada and the world. Inspired by ACN Brazil in 2015 and officially launched in 2016 by ACN UK, the initiative has grown to over 20 countries standing together against Christian persecution.

Everyone is invited to stand with persecuted Christians. Show solidarity by praying, wearing red, or illuminating buildings in your community. Read more: acn-canada.org/red-wednesday
