  BLACK TO OUR ROOTS: Raising Our Own to Serve With P. Wade Ross on Thursday, April 16, 2026 at 11:AM at New Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church 2864 Mississippi Avenue Fort Worth, Texas 76104. Pastor Kyev Tatum, Host Pastor  In a time when communities are searching for answers, we are returning to something timeless. The soil. The seed. The stewardship of our own hands. Black to Our Roots is more than a gardening initiative— it is a movement of restoration. A return to wisdom. A reclaiming of knowledge. A rebuilding of self-sustaining communities from the ground up.

FAITH AT THE FIFTY:  How I.M. Terrell, Farrington Field, and a segregated Texas met at midfield—and history refused to stay silent on December 24, 1940 in Fort Worth, Texas.  By Pastor Kyev P. Tatum, Sr. The Day Before Christmas… When Heaven Met the Hashmarks On the day before Christmas in 1940, while families across Texas were preparing gifts beneath trees, something far greater was being unwrapped in Fort Worth. Not toys. Not traditions. But testimony. Because at Farrington Field—right there at the fifty-yard line—faith, football, and freedom collided in a way that would echo far beyond the stadium walls. This is not just a football story. This is a story about what happens when a people denied full access to America still find a way to stand at the center of it.
