The first-ever 40 Days for Life campaign in Taiwan is led by Angel, who works at a pregnancy care center.

"The weather here in Taiwan is seriously very hot," she said, "but praise God! I believe more and more people are going to come!"

Angel is hoping the vigil eventually attracts more than 100 volunteers ? and she's certainly done a lot of behind-the-scenes work in preparation for the campaign, translating much of the 40 Days for Life resource material ? including the vigil calendar ? into the local language.

Angel has high hopes that 40 Days for Life will continue to grow.
