PSA- GM Water Supply
This PSA is from GM Water to address the issues they are having throughout their system. The discoloration of the water is not mud or dirt, it is iron manganese.
The water leaving the plant is completely clear, the iron manganese within the lining of the pipes falls out into the lines AFTER leaving the water plant. GM Water is working with closely with TCEQ to find a better way to treat the water to reduce the discoloration.

If you are experiencing red/discolored water, please avoid washing white/light colored clothing The lines are being flushed throughout the system by multiple teams. There are multiple entities that need to give approvals during this process, and it can be out of our control. Please contact the office at 409-7872755 during office hours if you are still experiencing issues so that we can keep track of these areas.

After outgrowing their first venue at Only Believe Ministries, Roy and Melanie Fields with Run with Fire Ministries, began looking for a place large enough to hold the growing crowds.The VFW Hall next to the rodeo arena made it possible for the revival to continue. Now, what began as just four nights, has grown into its third location at Hemphill High School. This weekend they are extending one more time due to the hunger of many hearts to see the Holy Spirit move and the fire that is blowing thru the lives of young people all over since the horror from last week’s assasination. You are invited to join the movement. Stand side by side with other believers to proclaim a living God who is Emmanuel!
Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 7 p.m. at the Hemphill High School Cafeteria. Doors open nightly at 6:30p.m.
