Bells to toll statewide at 6 p.m. daily

Lt. Gov. Delbert Hosemann started the idea and it’s picked up by the governor and others…ringing church bells at 6 p.m. daily to honor health care workers and others who are on the front lines battling COVID-19. One of Tylertown’s landmarks, the old bell at Tylertown United Methodist Church, is one of those set to join in a “statewide ringing” daily at 6 p.m. and lifelong church member, Victor Plohetski, rang it the first Monday. Volunteer church members will be ringing the bell daily to also show community unity in battling the pandemic.
