My documentation contributed to the establishment of the first North Texas Food Bank, as well as the Austin Street Shelter and the Annett Strauss Family Shelter. My ministry reflects a lifelong commitment to community, compassion, and progress.

In Verna’s Jubilee, I share my personal journey of serving the homeless, feeding the hungry, and working alongside influential leaders across Dallas to meet the needs of the most vulnerable. The film celebrates decades of advocacy, faith-driven service, and uplifting the African-American community.

I am grateful to have received recognition from President Joe Biden, Texas Governor Greg Abbott, and the Dallas County Commissioners Court, including Judge Clay L. Jenkins, Dr. Elba Garcia, John Wiley Price, Dr. Theresa M. Daniel, and Andrew Sommerman. I have also been honored by Garland Mayor Scott LeMay and Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson.
