Members of the Kerrville community will gather to honor and remember the lives lost during the recent flash flooding. Community blessing is a time for those impacted by the storms to lean on each and their faith as they try to rebuild their lives.

Kerrville’s mayor said he was unaware of any help sent by the state to his community ahead of the flood, a day after Gov. Greg Abbott said the state had “assets, resources and personnel” in place two days before a flood tore through the Hill Country.
