Aunt Mary by viture of my office and in the name of Jesus Christ I place my hands upon thy head to bless thee and I ask the Eternal Father for his spirit to write the same and fill thee with the influence thereof. Thou art in years and hath seen many changes. Thou hast passed through many trials and seen afflictions for the gospel sake and I say unto thee be of good faith and of good cheer and let thy heart be comforted. The Lord is pleased with thine integrity. He hath heard thy petitions and will answer thee to thy satisfaction and reward thee for every trial through which thou hast passed. Thy name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life and shall be handed down in honourable remembrance from generation to generation and thou shalt be crowned among the faithful mothers in Israel. Thou art of the blood of Joseph and of the lineage of Ephraim and entitled to every blessing pertaining to the New and Everlasting Covenant with the gifts thereof. Thy days and years shall be prolonged until thou art satisfied with life and shall see the coming of the Messiah and have an inheritance on Mount Zion, the New Jerusalem, with the Saints for ever. Let thy heart be comforted for I seal upon thee through the power of the Priesthood the blessing of health and thou shalt be made equal unto every task and shall fulfill thy mission upon the Earth and thy great-grandchildren shall comfort thee in thine old age. This with all thy former blessings with the blessings of the Redeemer's Kingdom I seal upon thy head and I seal thee up unto eternal life to come forth in the morning of the first resurrection with many of thy kindred and friends, even so Amen. |
Sister Elizabeth, by virtue of the holy priesthood I lay my hands upon thy head and ask God the Eternal Father for his spirit to rest upon thee and fill thee with the influence thereof, and give thee strength of body and mind, and make the equal unto every task, and strength and grace sufficient for thy day. Thou art of the house of Israel and entitled through obedience to the gospel to many blessings which thou shalt receive in the tribe of Ephraim, which was the lineage of thy forefathers for whom thou hast to do. Be of good cheer, for the Lord knoweth the secrets of thy heart and will reward thee for the trials through which thou hast passed, and thou shalt be blessed in the labor of thy hands and shall not lack for food, raiment, and shelter. Seek to do good and thou shalt have the spirit of counsel and be blessed in thine outgoings and incomings and thy basket and store. Thy table shall be spread with the bounties of the Earth and thou shalt impart unto the needy. Thou art numbered with the mothers in Israel and thy name shall be had in remembrance among the saints and written in the Lamb's book of life. Thy children shall be a comfort unto thee in thine old age. Therefore be of good cheer, for thy last days shall be thy best days. This with all thy former blessings I seal upon thy head and I seal thee up unto eternal life to come forth in the morning of the first resurrection with many of thy kindred and friends. Even so, Amen. |
