FAITH, FADES, FAMILY, FOOD & FUN: BACK TO SCHOOL BASH AT THE HOUSE OF FADEZ A HUGE SUCCESS.

“It felt like family.” – Dr. Misty Maclin, Maclin Family Medicine


Fort Worth, Texas – Morningside came alive with joy, laughter, and love as the annual Back to School Bash at House of Fadez brought the community together to celebrate, encourage, and equip our children for a winning school year.



The scene was pure excitement — children bouncing high in the inflatable house, their faces lit with joy, parents chatting with neighbors, and the smell of fresh Domino’s pizza and mouthwatering SAVVY Sliders filling the air. The team at SAVVY Sliders didn’t just serve delicious food — they connected with their new neighbors, shared smiles, and blessed local children with coupons for free meals.



But beyond the fun and food, the heartbeat of this event was the mission: to prepare our young scholars for success in the classroom and in life.



Boss Lady E — better known as Ms. Erika Webb, proud mother of three and powerhouse owner of House of Fadez — welcomed a powerhouse lineup of community partners. Dr. Misty Maclin and her team from Maclin Family Medicine delivered a game-changing gift: free student physicals and the exciting news that house calls will soon be available for Morningside families. “This felt like family, and I’m thankful for the opportunity to give back to the community,” Dr. Maclin said, her words echoing the spirit of the day.



From free backpacks to fresh haircuts, from sports physicals to heartfelt hugs, House of Fadez proved once again it’s more than a barbershop — it’s a beacon of hope, pride, and possibility. “We are grateful for the neighborhood businesses who stepped up to help make this Back to School Bash a success,” Boss Lady E shared with pride.


And the movement doesn’t stop here. In partnership with New Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church, Skills City, USA, the Ministers Justice Coalition of Texas, Boyz2Men Mentors, and Hope Farm, the vision is growing into a year-round outreach effort with a powerful mission: Lift As We Climb — because when one child rises, the whole community rises.



The Fatherhood Forward Initiative is building momentum:





• Tuesday, August 12, 2025 – First Day Fathers greet students at Morningside Middle School.



• Tuesday, August 26, 2025 – 7:20 AM – All Pro Dads at Briscoe Elementary School.


• Friday, September 19, 2025 – 8:00 AM – Million Father March at Morningside Middle School.





• Wednesday, September 24, 2025 – 8:30 AM – See You at the Pole at Morningside Middle School.

Starting Friday, October 3, 2025, First Friday Fathers will launch — a New Mount Rose Church initiative, in collaboration with the Ministers Justice Coalition of Texas, Boyz2Men Mentors, and Hope Farm — calling fathers to step into their children’s schools at least once a month to inspire, encourage, and support both students and teachers, creating faith-filled and father-friendly school environments.



In Morningside, back to school is more than sharpened pencils and new shoes — it’s about building dreams, strengthening families, and showing our children that their community will always have their back.

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...
