What I'm trying to do is create a document that has a 4-block header on the left hand side, the title in the center, and then open space for the author to enter their material. When they get to the second page, I want them to have the full page length, plus a header that starts with page number 2. I do not want a header on the first page.

You can do all this with a single template. You'll need different page styles for your first and subsequent pages. Since you want the text to flow naturally from the first to second pages, you won't want to insert a manual page break ...

Errm. What happens if the "first page" is short? If you insert a manual page break, will the subsequent page be of the correct style?

Apparently so. A quick trial shows that the default value for Style in the Insert Break dialogue is "[None]", and that this leads to the following page inheriting the Next Style of the page style of the first page - even if that is not named "Default", in fact.
