April 25 marks Blue Sunday—an annual day to pray for neglected youth as Child Abuse Prevention Month winds down to a close.
There will be multiple opportunities at local churches for San Antonians to mark Blue Sunday this year:
- At about 10:20 a.m. at Grace Pavilion Church, Hope Shelton, a faith-based specialist with the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services, will appear to speak at a service which will be livestreamed here.
- A little later, at about 11:10 a.m., Shelton will also speak in person at Encuentro Church (located at 9800 Guilbeau Rd.). The service will be available virtually here.
- At about 11:30 a.m., Shelton will also appear at the Joshua House of Worship's virtual service.
- Finally, the pastor at Covenant Community Church, Earl Grant, will lead a Blue Sunday service and altar call as he has done for several years; it will be available to watch virtually here.
