Volunteers participating in the 19th 40 Days for Life vigil in Southfield held a memorial service for children who are victims of abortion.

The group included parishioners from a local church ? including members of two families.

?The joy-filled children playing outside the abortion center after the service were a stark contrast to the staff inside, who were finishing up their deadly work at 5:30 pm on a Saturday afternoon,? said one of the Southfield team leaders.
