GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS: Filling in the GAP at New Mount Rose. Ezekiel 22:23–31. 



Today was a truly historic and spirit-filled day at New Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church. The North Texas Buffalo Soldiers have officially entrusted New Mount Rose to serve as the stewards of the Buffalo Soldiers Legacy in Texas.






For years, New Mount Rose has faithfully honored the legacy of these courageous soldiers — most notably through its involvement in the headstone replacement ceremony for the 24th Infantry at the historic Fort Sam Houston National Cemetery in San Antonio.




This new covenant partnership, which also links with the descendants of Buffalo Soldiers in Tyler, Texas, carries deep and personal meaning for Pastor Kyev Tatum, who serves as chaplain to the Buffalo Soldiers and has long championed their memory and mission.



As the proud home of the Little Miss Six Triple Eight youth ambassadors, New Mount Rose has become a powerful center for positive youth development — providing programs inspired by the perseverance, discipline, and honor of the Buffalo Soldiers to uplift children who struggle within traditional settings.





“This covenant agreement will make a meaningful difference in the lives of our children, our community, and our city,” says Pastor Tatum. “We need all hands on deck.”




Today’s message to the congregation posed a profound question: Are you the one who will stand in the gap for this generation — or will you be among those the Lord could not find? (v.30)











We believe with grateful hearts that today, the Lord answered our prayers. He has opened the door for us to protect, preserve, and promote the legacies of both the Buffalo Soldiers and the heroic women of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, right here at New Mount Rose.



Thank You, Lord, for the blessing of the Gap Ministry — where we humbly and boldly stand in the GAP for this generation.

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...

Bush Presidential Center on the campus of Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, hosted an extraordinary event honoring the trailblazing women of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, affectionately known as the “Six Triple Eight.” This all-Black, all-female unit of the Women’s Army Corps made history during World War II by clearing a staggering 17 million-piece mail backlog in Europe, ensuring that American service members received their much-needed letters from home. Their dedication and efficiency not only boosted troop morale but also shattered racial and gender barriers of their time. In recognition of their extraordinary service, the battalion was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in 2022, the highest civilian ho...
