Sister Ellen in the name of Jesus Christ I lay my hands upon thy head in order to pronounce and seal a blessing upon thee which shall be as the spirit may invite. Therefore I say unto thee, prepare thy mind to receive the blessings which the Lord shall see fit to bestow upon thee. Thou art of the House of Israel and of the lineage of Ephraim and entitled to many blessings. Thou hast also as it were seen trials and afflictions, but nothing to compare with many of the saints. Thou hast also left thy nature land, kindred, and friends for the gospel's sake for which thou shalt receive thy reward if thou art faithful and do not forfeit these blessings through disobedience and carelessness. Therefore I say unto thee be upon thy guard and forget not to be humble and prayerful and thou shalt have the spirit of the Lord to be with thee day by day and guide thy footsteps and open the way before thee and thou shalt see better and happier days. The Lord knoweth the integrity of thy heart and will deal out blessings unto thee according as thou shalt merit. I say unto thee e of good cheer and let thy heart be comforted. Be not cast down in spirit but be buoyant with thee and thine, and thy children shall be a comfort to thee in thine old age and rise up and bless thee for the good counsel which thou hast given them. This blessing I seal upon thy head and I seal thee up unto eternal life to come forth in the morning of the first resurrection. Even so Amen. |
Sister Beata, in the name of Jesus Christ I place my hands upon thy head and I ask God the Eternal Father to cause his holy spirit to rest upon you that thy blessing shall be in accordance to his will, for thou art called to do a good work upon the earth, yea, even to stand first in thy fathers, provided thou art faithful and use all diligence to bring to the knowledge of the truth thy kindred, that they may obtain Eternal life, for this is thy duty, for many of thy kindred are yet in darkness but honest in heart. Therefore, use all diligence in their behalf and thou shalt be blessed with wisdom equal to the task, for thou art of the blood of Ephraim, and in that tribe you shall receive your blessings, and your inheritance shall be upon Mount Zion, and be numbered among the faithful daughters of Zion. Thou shalt also be blessed in thy basket and store, and thy children shall be a comfort unto you, therefore live thy religion and hold sacred thy covenants and no good thing shall be withheld from you in this life and hereafter. Thou shalt obtain life Eternal. This blessing I seal upon thy head in the name of Jesus Christ. Even so Amen. |
