Maryknoll Magazine Spring 2026
In this issue of Maryknoll, we examine how cuts to U.S. foreign aid have impacted a major AIDS relief program launched decades ago in Kenya by Maryknoll missioners, while in another article, we visit an AIDS hospice started by Maryknoll sisters that provides care and shelter to patients in Guatemala.
We continue our coverage of immigration with a look at the Church’s clear opposition to mass deportation and the mistreatment of migrants. We meet the latest group of Maryknoll lay missioners, accompany young adults on a pilgrimage to Rome, and share other mission stories from around the world.
