Knighting an Apostle
My Sister just sent this to me… Most funny! (Apologies if this has already been mentioned)
———————————————
?Ǭ†After President Hinckley finished with the sustaining of the officers
?Ǭ†of the church during the Saturday morning session, Elder Eyring had
?Ǭ†moved into his new seat on the stand. Unfortunately, they didn’t show
?Ǭ†this on TV, but when President Hinckley turned around, he stood there
?Ǭ†for a moment looking at Elder Eyring (probably with the little twinkle
?Ǭ†in his eye), then picked up his cane and “knighted” him on his
?Ǭ†shoulder and head. Truly one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen
?Ǭ†him do.
?Ǭ†Here’s the picture from it. I love how Elder Erying looks just like a
?Ǭ†little boy….

[...] Little known ordinance for joining the First Presidency. Chivalry meets the priesthood. [...]

I wonder if this is an ordinance or if it is just one of those funny things you do when you lead a Church of over 13 Million People?

JM,
He was like a kid in a candy store at the PR interview he gave afterwards. I grew to appreciate him all the more because he truly seemed in awe of the calling he had just received.
