Fr. Eric Wanyonyi Simiyu SJ had this to say,  &#8220;My heart is full of joy and gratitude to see continuity of life in the eyes of the children and youth. 20 years ago, HIV\/AIDS was most feared because there was dim hope of life especially in most African countries stricken by poverty and political conflicts. Yet today we are celebrating how AJAN has helped us to be linked for life with hope of continuity.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"506\" height=\"294\" src=\"https:\/\/ajan.africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/20-Years-of-AJAN-SS2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11006\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ajan.africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/20-Years-of-AJAN-SS2.jpg 506w, https:\/\/ajan.africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/20-Years-of-AJAN-SS2-300x174.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ajan.africa\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/20-Years-of-AJAN-SS2-18x10.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 506px) 100vw, 506px\" \/><figcaption><em>Joyful and happy children celebrating 20 years of AJAN\u2019s Misistry, St. Teresa Parish, Rumbek, South Sudan.24\/07\/2022.
