MSU said this is just one way they are taking care of what matters.

” We just think this is a great moment to show the community the unity that we already have. Especially, amongst us as pastors and churches here in Starkville, and to remind ourselves there is work still to do.

Several different organizations played a role in putting on the day’s events.
