>>>The 8th-grade students at Saint Vincent de Paul School recently donated, cooked and served dinner to all families who attended the Saint Vincent Math Night, raising $780. As part of a Pay It Forward concept, the students then donated the money to two agencies that address hunger issues: the Cathedral of the Madeleine Good Samaritan Program and the Utah Food Bank.

After going through and getting an understanding of what this particular Bible was trying to accomplish, I did not really know what I was going to say about "LIVE."
