When in Rome...

Back in Octoberish I was Brigham Young in a Primary activity, well, they did another one after the Britannia contest and I was the Roman centurion who believed in Jesus after the earthquake, etc.

Notice the loverly brown Red Wings boots - very 'time' appropriate I must say...

The 'cast' - our Stake president was Joseph of Arimathea (who we all know brought the Holy Grail to Britain all those years ago and was an ancestor of English medieval royalty and....notice there is no 'apparently' here = all untrue!), Elder Cochran was Joseph Smith, Tami was one of the 5,000 - it was really cool! The whole idea was for these people from history to testify that Jesus was the Christ.

And here I am as the Roman centurion. I didn't understand for a while why the kids didn't ask me too many questions, but then I realized....I WAS THE GUY WHO KILLED JESUS!! At least in their eyes! 'Umm...let's get away from the tall guy with the sword who killed Jesus' is what might have gone through their heads.

All in all it was a good day. The kids had fun, I felt good and they ended with a nice lunch.
