Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles Presiding Officer Marsha Moberley to Visit Fort Worth as Keynote Speaker for MLK Justice Brunch on Jan 16th At New Mount Rose. 


Fort Worth, Texas – January 10, 2025 – Marsha Moberley, a distinguished leader in the Texas criminal justice system and Chair of the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles, will be the featured speaker at the inaugural MLK Justice Brunch on Thursday, January 16, 2025, at New Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church in Fort Worth, Texas. This important event, set to begin at 11:30 AM, will bring together community leaders, activists, and residents to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and discuss the ongoing fight for racial justice and equality.




The MLK Justice Brunch, hosted by the Ministers Justice Coalition of Texas, will provide a space for reflection and action on the issues of justice that Dr. King fought for throughout his life. With Ms. Moberley at the helm of the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles, this year’s brunch is expected to highlight critical conversations around criminal justice reform, rehabilitation, and fairness.





Marsha Moberley, who hails from Iowa Colony, brings more than 25 years of expertise in the criminal justice field, including her tenure as a former commissioner and board member of the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles. In her current role as chair, she oversees key decisions regarding parole and clemency, influencing the lives of thousands of individuals within the Texas prison system. Moberley has dedicated her career to ensuring that Texas’ justice system promotes fairness and the rehabilitation of those seeking parole.




“The Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles has maintained a great relationship with the Ministers Justice Coalition for many years,” said Commissioner James Paul Kiel, Parole Commissioner for the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles. “They have attended several Board meetings in the past. Reverend Tatum has taken leadership of this group since Reverend Rogers passed away. The Ministers Justice Coalition of Texas is a devoted group of pastors seeking to lead and serve their congregations in the Fort Worth area and beyond.”





Before her appointment as chair, Moberley had a distinguished career in various roles, including Chief Juvenile Officer for Deaf Smith and Oldham counties and Probation Officer for both Young and Stephens counties. She is also a member of several professional organizations, including the Association of Paroling Authorities International and the Juvenile Justice Association of Texas. Moberley’s career trajectory reflects her deep commitment to improving the criminal justice system, advocating for those who need support in reintegrating into society.


At the MLK Justice Brunch, Ms. Moberley will share insights into her work and discuss the critical importance of justice reform. Her address will address ongoing challenges in the criminal justice system, providing a platform for further discussion on how to create a more equitable society.


Additionally, three distinguished pastors will be honored at the event for their unwavering commitment to reentry programs and for supporting the families of individuals who have loved ones incarcerated. The honorees are:

• Pastor Andre Johnson of the First Stop ReEntry and Fatherhood Coalition

• Pastor Robert Brown of Christ Temple Church and the Ministers Justice Coalition

• Pastor John Holiman of Greater TrueLight Church and the Ministers Justice Coalition


These leaders have made significant contributions to supporting those navigating the challenges of reentry and have worked tirelessly to assist families affected by incarceration. Their dedication to providing resources, counseling, and support to individuals in the reentry process is an integral part of the ongoing work to build a fairer and more just system.

NOT GUILTY IN TARRANT COUNTY! Joseph Delancy Stands Victorious with His Grandmother by His Side. Pastor Kyev Tatum, Sr.  https://www.star-telegram.com/news/local/crime/article301585229.html FORT WORTH, TEXAS - When the words “Not Guilty” rang through the courtroom, Shonette “Mama Shon” Hill felt the weight of the world lift from her shoulders. Her grandson, Joseph Delancy, had endured an unimaginable trial—accused of a crime he did not commit, fighting against a system determined to make him a scapegoat. But through it all, Mama Shon stood firm, unwavering in her belief in Joseph’s innocence. With the love only a grandmother can give, she had been his rock, his shield, his fiercest defender. When others turned away, she remained. When doubt crept in, she stood taller. And when the verdict came, she held Joseph close—her faith and love carrying him through the storm. This was not just a victory for Joseph. It was a testament to a grandmother’s unbreakable love. A FIGHT FOR JUSTICE, ...

Aunt Liz the Angel: A Champion for the Six Triple Eight. By Pastor Kyev Tatum, Founding Director, Texas 6888th Project. WASHINGTON, D.C. – On April 29, 2025, inside Emancipation Hall beneath the sacred shadow of the Capitol dome, the soul of America was stirred as our nation finally paused to say “thank you” to the women of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion. That day, wrapped in dignity and destiny, the Congressional Gold Medal was placed upon their legacy. And standing at the center of this divine moment, like a hidden angel sent for such a time as this, was none other than Retired Master Sergeant Elizabeth Anne Helm-Frazier—known across our community, and to the cast of the Tyler Perry film, simply and lovingly as Aunt Liz. Let me say it plain: Aunt Liz is God’s gift to the memory of the Six Triple Eight. When the final living members of the battalion took her in, they said something Master Sgt. never forget: “Liz can’t do no wrong in our book.” And I declare today—neithe...
