Ordination, Lawrence O. Ehigiator Ordination

Lawrence O. Ehigiator
Carved wood, 2000


In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter–day Saints, ordinations are carried out by those in authority who hold the priesthood. "And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron" (Hebrews 5:4). This sculpture depicts two elders conferring the priesthood upon a young man.
