Originating from Macon, Georgia, Lady Natalie was raised in a family deeply rooted in Christian values. Her late father, Reverend James A. Chambliss, Jr., a business owner and devoted pastor in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, and her entrepreneurial mother, Cletia Chambliss, instilled in her principles of compassion and hard work. At just nine years old, Natalie made a significant commitment to her faith at St. Paul African Methodist Episcopal Church, igniting a lifelong passion for spiritual exploration and the desire to help others.

Together with her husband, Reverend Dr. Marvin A. Moss, they have created a nurturing home rich in faith, laughter, and support, strengthening their commitment to both family and community. This environment fosters deep relationships and reinforces their shared dedication to serving others.
