I didn't grow up in the church, and my ex-husband didn't use his priesthood generously or wisely. <BR/><BR/>It has left me wary.<BR/><BR/>But it's nice to hear that there are good men out there who honor their priesthood.Anna Maria Junushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14589846694967185982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-738015707983587606.post-82900712915087520142008-05-06T15:32:00.000-06:002008-05-06T15:32:00.000-06:00Every worth young man, at the age of 12, receives ...Every worth young man, at the age of 12, receives the Aaronic Priesthood. In that area of the priesthood, there are the offices of Deacon, Teacher and Priest, all of which hold different responsibilities.<BR/><BR/>At the age of 18, worthy young men are advanced to the office of Elder in the Melchizedek Priesthood. This is where they can begin giving the priesthood blessings spoken of in this post.<BR/><BR/>Each young man can track his priesthood genealogy back to Joseph Smith, Jr. Generally speaking, the priesthood is bestowed upon them by their father, uncle or grandfather, if all are worthy to do so. Otherwise, if one of them is not available, then the Bishop of the ward will bestow the keys of the priesthood upon the worthy young man.<BR/><BR/>It is a very organized and righteous order of things which occurs each time.<BR/><BR/>I am blessed with my father and my husband, no question!

Will they know through Prayer, or by someone from Church?<BR/>Your Father and husband are such very important men in your life, the same as mine. I'm still so grateful for all the lessons my Father tought me, and the ones my husband still teaches me today.<BR/>Love ya my dear friend!<BR/>XMARJAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07003495427964241038noreply@blogger.com
