This is the second 40 Days for Life campaign in Barranquilla. ?We pray for the end of abortion in Colombia and the whole world,? said one of the local team members.

And the community has embraced the vigil. ?There are people that have promised to take turns daily,? the volunteer said. ?Religious communities and priests are supporting us, and we have been spreading the word on the local media.?

The team says the local police ?keep them company? at the vigil.

?We keep praying -- for every baby that has been aborted, that is being aborted and that will be aborted. Your prayer can save lives -- and has already done so!?
