THE LADY OF UNITY: The Story of Debra Christian and the Christian Family Legacy from 1800s to 2025.




THE LADY OF UNITY: The Story of Debra Christian and the Christian Family Legacy from 1800s to 2025. 

Proverbs 31:29 — “Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.”



THE HISTORIC SHILOH COMMUNITY: The Christian Family of the historic Shiloh Community in White Oak, Texas, stands as a living testimony to the strength of unity in diversity — a multigenerational bloodline of Black, White, Brown, and Red Christians bound together by faith, love, and service to God and country. Their heritage, stretching across the 250-year story of America, serves as a reminder of the power of family unity in diversity.


From Rev. Butcher Christian, Sr., the family patriarch and spiritual trailblazer, to Gideon Christian, who served the people of Texas as a respected state representative; from Zoriah Christian, who courageously volunteered for service during World War II, to Ms. Debra Christian, “The Lady of Unity,” whose visionary generosity led to the donation of 64 acres of land for a Texas State Veterans Cemetery — the Christian family’s sacrifice and service run deep in their bloodline.


On Monday, November 10, 2025, the Christian Family will continue its proud legacy during the annual Christian Family Veterans Day Celebration. This year’s observance will include the presentation of Congressional Gold Medals honoring the heroic 369th Infantry Regiment and the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion.


In a moment of historic significance, the family will also receive the official charter establishing the Randall D. Christian, Sr. Buffalo Soldiers of East Texas, presented by the Texas Buffalo Soldiers Association under the leadership of Commander RosieLeetta Reed.


The Christian Family’s story — written in faith, sealed in service, and sustained by love — reminds the world that the true strength of America flows through families who live, serve, and believe together as one.

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...

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...
