The Bishop's Helper

Again, this post is for Ashley. I promised I would tell her all about our new Priesthood holder.
 
Joey was the Bishop's helper yesterday, which meant he was kind of the leader with passing the Sacrament. We sit in that area so he finally was going to be able to pass the Sacrament to us! He did pretty well until someone was done early and they came to our row. Oh my gosh! If looks were daggers! I smiled and he calmed down a bit and finished with the bread. Then the same thing happened with the water but he handled it very well; his looks were less menacing.
Then he got to sit on the stand. And he did very well. Except for when Mackenzie bore her testimony. After she was done, he made faces at her when she sat with us. I had to keep glaring at him to fold his arms. Then Carli got up to bare her testimony. She kept trying to push him out of his seat so he could go to the stand. I don't think she was expecting someone that small to be the Bishop's helper. But Joey was kind and told her he was not going up and she went ahead and bore her testimony. I was impressed with his reverent attitude until he flashed his cheesy grin at me. At least his thumbs didn't go up! I think we still need to work in his reverence, especially when he is the Bishop's helper again!
