Prayer and blue balloons ends abuse awareness month

CCD students from St. Mary Mission in Robstown released several blue balloons up into the gray sky on the morning of April 28. The event concluded National Child Abuse Awareness Month in honor of all children who die of abuse every year. All CCD students from pre-kinder to High School gathered outside of the small mission church for a prayer led by their pastor, Father Anthony Blount, before they released the balloons.
