People who believe abortions are wrong will pray and fast during shifts for 40 days.
Representatives from the Pro-Life Campaign will stand at Planned Parenthood, 630 S. Buffalo St., Warsaw, starting Wednesday until Nov. 1 to show their opposition to abortions.

The campaign draws attention to abortion through the use of a three-point program: prayer and fasting, a constant prayer vigil and community outreach. Vigil hours are from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. There will be two to three people during each one-hour shift praying and holding signs that say "Pray To End Abortion, 40 Days For Life." The campaign will be held in more than 200 cities across the United States and in several foreign countries.
"As people here in Kosciusko County join with others from across the country to pray and fast, and take action for 40 days to end the tragic violence of abortion, we look forward to seeing what kind of transformation God will bring about in our county and throughout America," said Dave Koontz, campaign director and Kosciusko County Right To Life director.
Koontz said people who are interested in participating in the prayer vigil and holding signs can sign up for times. To learn more about the campaign or to participate, visit www.40daysforlife.com; or the Kosciusko County campaign, www.40daysforlife.com/warsaw
