MarginOfError Posted January 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Well, it has to be a legitimate calling. How about Ward Building Scheduler?This would be a terrible calling for you. Ward Building Schedulers need to know how to use computers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gwen Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 It's amazing how quickly this went from a ward set up by the church to secret combinations..... hummmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 I'm both flattered that you'd call me to Primary president, and a little mad at you for sticking me with the kids for a 7th day in a week. But I've served in Primary and I think it's my favorite, so I'll get over it. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prisonchaplain Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Not a very inspired bishop are we? lolI'm in a branch so I'm not sure what to do with so many callings.

Gwen Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 You sure do have an ecumenical bent to you! Or is it that you like service to be "dry?"LOL so I had to look up ecumenical. I was a little worried about too many non lds for an lds branch but it seems I made a good choice. All the lds turned to secret combinations pretty quick. lol But in the end I do have to admit I just like diversity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennarator Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 How does that differ from Elders Quorum? Slightly older?Yes, older. Really to get the High Priest keys of the priesthood you need to have needed those specific keys, such as being part of the bishopric.There are many that stay Elders their whole lives, but around 45-ish, they typicilly join the High Priest Group at church, and go to that class, I guess so they are around people closer to their age? I know someone can explaine this better than me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just_A_Guy Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 You more or less have it right - to hold certain positions in the Church (Bishop or counselor, stake president or presidency member, stake high councilor . . .) you have to be ordained to the office of a High Priest. Once you're released from service, you remain a high priest and so during priesthood meeting you don't meet with the elders anymore. Each ward has its own elders quorum; but each stake only has one high priest quorum with the Stake President serving as the quorum president. Therefore, at normal Sunday ward services the high priests of a ward will meet in a "group" (not a "quorum") led by a "group leader", not a "quorum president". As you say, once a man starts getting more "seasoned" he'll often be invited to meet with the high priests instead of the elders, even if he was never formally ordained a high priest. My dad is in his mid-sixties and is in this situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prisonchaplain Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 So, this calling of mine is more or less to keep the "seasoned citizens" entertained??? Oh, and no pressure really...it's just that most of the class has "been there and done that" so many times, that the level of skepticism that a group leader really has any new or fresh insights would be sky high...sounds like a perfect role for the young kid with the funny collar...
