TWO RIVERS, Wis. (CBS 58) -- It's been nearly a month since 3-year-old Elijah Vue was last seen in Two Rivers. 

Vue was reported missing on Feb. 20, after his mother's boyfriend said he had fallen asleep and awoke to find the child gone. 

On Saturday, March 16, there was a gathering at a baseball field in Two Rivers. 

People prayed and held a candlelight vigil for Elijah. 

Everyone took home a white bag with a light for their porch with the hope of leading Elijah home. 

Those organizing the search said they are not giving up.

"We still need volunteers; we still need areas searched. We still need help, no matter if you can't search on the ground, you can help online, we need everybody, we need bodies everywhere searching for Elijah to get Elijah home," said Jordan Dillon, vigil coordinator.

Elijah's mother Katrina Baur and her boyfriend Jesse Vang are in custody on child neglect charges

The reward for information that helps solve the case is up to $40,000.
