The Solemn Feast of the Body and Blood of Christ on June 3, 2018.
On Sunday, June 3rd, St. Mary Star of the Sea parish in Ballinger sponsored a very special celebration of the Feast of the Body and Blood of Christ. The Most Reverend Michael J. Sis, Bishop of San Angelo, presided in the Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament, a walking Eucharistic Procession around the parish grounds, and a five-mile Eucharistic motorcade through the streets of Ballinger. Its purpose was to consecrate and dedicate the parish, the city, and the surrounding area to Jesus Christ. The Eucharistic motorcade was led by Bishop Sis and Father Mulakaleti under a vehicle-mounted canopy with the Blessed Sacrament exposed in the Monstrance. During the motorcade, the local radio station, KRUN, broadcast live commentary by Bishop Sis, religious music, and the recitation of the Rosary.
Following the motorcade everyone reassembled in the Church for the closing of Exposition and a Benediction Service. Everyone was invited to a fellowship meal served in the Parish Center.
