Today in Sunday School there was a good turnout, and the stake ysa reps also decided to grace Rosny ward with their presence ;) Maz even wore a new shirt for the occasion! Alex had the blessing of becoming acquainted with all the Rad Rosny-ites there; to refresh his memory there were Emma, Libby, Jason, Anthony, Scott, Leah, Bek, Emily, Denisha and Trevor...I mean, Fiona. Oh and Colin, our awesome teacher, who gave an awesome lesson. The restoration of the priesthood was the topic of the lesson. We got to watch a dvd of the restoration of the Aaronic Priesthood and then Melchizekek Priesthood. There was debate (thanks to Alex) as to whether John, who was promised he would not taste of death, but be changed in the twinkling of an eye at the Saviour's second coming, was really dressed like an angel like the other two, resurrected beings, as he's supposed to be ministering among men...hmm. And Maz learnt something new about the Salt Lake Temple! You're shocked I know, coz she knows EVERYTHING about it, right? :P The amazing fact is this: On the west facade of the temple, which has the three spires representing the Aaronic Priesthood, there are 4 windows...on the east side of the temple, which has the three spires representing the Melchizedek Priesthood, there are 5 windows. These represent the offices in each of the priesthoods: Deacon, Teacher, Priest and Bishop for the Aaronic, and Elder, High Priest, Patriarch, Seventy and Apostle for the Melchizedek. Cool huh! Next week's lesson (correct me if I'm wrong, Colin) is on lesson 9 - "The Only True and Living Church."
