In the LDS Church, some offices in the Priesthood have minimum age requirements: - A deacon must be at least 12 years old - A teacher must be at least 14 years old - A priest must be at least 16 years old - An elder must be at least 18 years old I am wondering, what is the history of these age requirements?
