A Shady Grove pastor is putting the Good Book to use in a bit of a unique way. Pastor Jack bacon was given a 409-year-old bible by his son as a Father’s Day gift (the son picked up the tattered volume at a yard sale for a buck).
Basically falling apart, despite its age, the book as a whole only could grab a few hundred bucks. BUT, the Pastor figured out that to own a single page of the volume, people would pay about $75 per sheet. He’s already raised $23K to repair his church and now is selling the last 200 pages to donate to worthy causes around the world. Check out more in the Mail Tribune.
