MORNINGSIDE 100: ONE CITY. ONE ZIP CODE. TWO DIFFERENT OUTCOMES: A Vision for New Mount Rose and the Morningside Community in 76104. Presented by Pastor Kyev P. Tatum, Sr. https://youtu.be/BJrSvUvf5H0?si=odZIZhQYNNaXHbQW
ONE CITY. ONE ZIP CODE. TWO DIFFERENT OUTCOMES.
In Fort Worth, Texas 76104, there exists a reality we can no longer ignore.
It is one zip code—
yet it tells two very different stories.
On one side, there is access:
Access to healthcare.
Access to quality education.
Access to economic opportunity.
Access to longer life expectancy.
On the other side—the east side of 76104, in Morningside—
there is a different experience.
An experience marked by:
• Lower life expectancy
• Limited access to healthcare
• Fewer economic opportunities
• Generational cycles of poverty and instability
Same city.
Same zip code.
Two completely different outcomes.
This is more than a disparity.
This is a defining moment.
This is a call to action.
THE ROLE OF THE CHURCH
The question is not whether the church sees the problem.
The question is:
Will the church respond with power, purpose, and strategy?
At New Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church,
we have answered that question with clarity and conviction.
We are not just a church that gathers.
We are a church that goes.
We are not just a church that preaches.
We are a church that practices.
We are not just a church in the community.
We are a church sent to transform the community.
FROM SURVIVAL TO SUSTAINABILITY
For too long, the east side of 76104 has been forced to live in survival mode.
But under the mission ministry of New Mount Rose,
we are leading a faith-fueled movement:
From Survival → To Sustainability
From:
• Crisis → Capacity
• Dependency → Development
• Poverty → Pathways
• Disparity → Dignity
This is not theoretical.
This is intentional.
This is strategic.
This is already in motion.
THE VISION: MORNINGSIDE 100
At the center of this mission is a bold and measurable commitment:
MORNINGSIDE 100
100 Jobs
100 Solutions
One Community Rising
This is our covenant with the people of Morningside.
Not promises—
pathways.
Not programs—
possibility.
A CHRIST-CENTERED ECOSYSTEM OF TRANSFORMATION
We are building a complete community ecosystem—
where faith meets function and ministry produces measurable impact.
Economic Development
Through the Inner City Coffee Exchange and Coffee Allo Cooperative, we are creating jobs, businesses, and pathways to ownership.
Health Equity
Through Health iN The Hood and the Clinic Without Walls, we are bringing healthcare directly into the community.
Screen To Esteem Services provides a full continuum of care:
• Prevention
• Intervention
• Treatment
• Post-treatment restoration
Because we believe:
We don’t just diagnose—we walk with people all the way to healing.
Emergency Response & Workforce Development
Through Skills City, USA Resilience Responders, we are training residents to serve as first responders and crisis leaders—creating jobs while strengthening community safety.
Senior Care & Dignity
Through Seasoned Seniors Services, we ensure that our elders receive the care, resources, and respect they deserve.
Citizenship & Unity
Through Nosotros La Gente Academy, we are building bridges across communities—offering citizenship pathways, ESL, and workforce readiness.
Youth Development
Through ROOTS Academy, we are investing in the next generation through education, enrichment, and character development.
Food Access & Sustainability
Through Faith in the Farm, we are connecting urban communities with rural farmers to create a new model of food access and agribusiness development.
WHY THIS MATTERS TO THE CITY
This mission is not just about one church.
This is about the future of Fort Worth.
Because when one side of a zip code suffers—
the entire city feels the impact.
But when transformation takes root—
the entire city rises.
A CALL TO CIVIC AND COMMUNITY LEADERSHIP
We are calling on:
• City leaders
• Healthcare systems
• Educational institutions
• Business leaders
• Faith-based organizations
• Community partners
To align with a model that is:
• Proven
• Scalable
• Community-rooted
• Christ-centered
THE INVITATION
We are not asking for charity.
We are inviting partnership.
We are not asking for sympathy.
We are building strategy.
We are not asking for temporary support.
We are creating sustainable transformation.
THE DECLARATION
We believe that the east side of 76104 will rise.
Not by chance—
but by commitment.
Not by outside intervention alone—
but by faith in action, led from within.
100 Jobs. 100 Solutions. One Community Rising.
PLOW FORWARD
We will not turn back.
We will not slow down.
We will not lose focus.
Hands to the plow. Eyes on the promise. — Luke 9:62
