Kerrville, TX — Just Now
In a moment that many are calling nothing short of divine timing, Guy Penrod — beloved gospel singer and former Gaither Vocal Band lead vocalist — has arrived quietly in flood-stricken Kerrville, Texas, as part of the expanding “Healing Station” relief effort aimed at bringing urgent help and hope to disaster survivors.
But true to his humble nature, Guy didn’t come for the headlines. He came for the hurting.
“There were no cameras, no entourage,” said one eyewitness at the scene. “Just Guy Penrod in a plain shirt, Bible tucked under one arm, helping unload supplies, hugging families, and praying with anyone who needed it.”
The Healing Station initiative — a mobile medical and spiritual care unit — has been making its way through flood-ravaged communities, offering basic health care, clean water, emotional support, and above all, compassion. Today, Guy Penrod brought something more: his voice and his presence.
Locals say he sang softly as he worked, offering impromptu hymns that turned parking lots and relief tents into holy ground.
“He sang ‘It Is Well With My Soul’ to an elderly couple who’d lost their home,” one volunteer shared, holding back tears. “There wasn’t a dry eye around.”
The devastation across Texas has left entire neighborhoods submerged, and families displaced — but today, many in Kerrville say they felt seen, comforted, and lifted in a way only someone like Guy could bring.
One father, who’d been sleeping in his truck with his wife and two children, said:
“He didn’t ask for anything. He didn’t even introduce himself. He just said, ‘Can I pray for your family?’ And he did. Right there in the mud.”
At 60, Guy Penrod has traveled the world sharing gospel through music — but today, he walked through floodwaters not as a performer, but as a servant.
“He told us, ‘Music is medicine, but love is the cure,’” said a nurse at the mobile clinic.
And in a place where homes were lost and hope was fading, that kind of love arrived right on time.
