New Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church is bringing gun safety, specialty coffee, spiritual renewal, Black history, and winter relief together for one ambitious four-day weekend. On a January weekend in Fort Worth, a church on Mississippi Avenue will transform Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s vision of a shared destiny into a working community agenda.

From President and CEO Dr. Karen Duncan’s surprise pop quiz at the inaugural JPS Citizens Healthcare Academy to Tarrant County Commissioner Rodrick Miles’s closing remarks connecting health care with faith care, one message became clear: JPS is not the hospital many people remember from the past.
