Did he take Faust's place in the First Presidency too?

Hi Harmony,
No, He was just called and ordained as an LDS Apostle. Elder Henry B. Eyring has been called as a 2nd Counselor in the First Presidency of the LDS Church. Elder Henry B. Eyring took James E. Faust's Place in the First Presidency.

The church can learn so many things from the FEDS. Just look at the Supreme Court: It didn't take John Roberts thirty years to be the chief judge as he was appointed and went straight up, in one fell swoop, to be the big decision maker. Let this guy go from the seventy to prophet.

Was Eyring the one who had to be propped up by Nelson this afternoon?

My dear it is questions like this that lead the followers of the False Lord to believe you are not one of their camp.
