"Our campaign is doing well," said Lidija, one of the 40 Days for Life leaders in Vukovar.

"More and more people are coming to ask us about the 40 Days for Life initiative and why are we there."

The Vukovar team also met with a Franciscan youth group. ?We introduced them to the facts and statistics about abortion ? and 40 Days for Life?s involvement in pro-life activities,? Lidija said.

?They were so surprised. They didn?t know much about abortion,? she said. ?At the end, they promised to get more involved.?
