The 40 Days for Life campaign is inviting others to join in 40 days of prayer during the Lenten season for an end to abortion starting today, Feb. 14.<\/p>\n

The international 40-day campaign seeks to end abortion locally through prayer and fasting, community outreach, and peaceful all-day vigils outside of abortion facilities, according to the group\u2019s website.<\/p>\n

Starting on Feb. 14, the beginning of Lent, and ending on March 24, Palm Sunday, individuals can take part in prayer vigils happening outside of abortion facilities in their local communities.<\/p>\n

The campaign aims to have participants hold prayer vigils nonstop, around the clock, for the 40-day, 960-hour period.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
