Sister Elizabeth, by virtue of the holy priesthood I place my hands upon thy head to pronounce and seal a blessing upon thee, that thy heart may be comforted, therefore be of good faith and of good cheer, for the Lord hath heard thy petitions, is pleased with thine integrity, and will reward thee through which thou has past. Thou hast forsaken thine kindred and friends for the sake of salvation. Continue faithful and thou shalt verily receive thy reward and as a mother in Israel thy name shall be handed down in honorable remembrance and written in the Lamb's Book of Life. Thou art of Ephraim. Thine inheritance is among the saints. Thy days and years shall be according to thy faith. Seek wisdom, that the blessing of the Lord may attend thee. It is thy privilege to council among thy sex, and to call them to faithfulness, that peace may be in thy circle. Listen to the whisperings of the still small voice of the comforter, for thy guardian angel will whisper in thine ear, give thee strength in time of trial, and power over evil and unclean spirits, and thou shalt not lack for the comforts of life, but shall give unto the needy, and comfort the hearts of the bowed down. This blessing I seal upon thy head in the name of Jesus Christ to come forth in the morning of the first resurrection a savior among thy kindred and friends. Even so, amen. |
Sister Ann Elizabeth, according to thy desire I place my hands upon thy head to bless thee and I ask God the eternal father for his spirit to invite thy blessing and fill thee with influence thereof. Thou art of the house of Israel and entitled through obedience to the gospel to the blessings of the new and everlasting covenant, with the gifts thereof. Thou art of the lineage of Ephraim and if thou art faithful thou shalt be crowned with the mothers in Israel who have fought the good fight of faith and won the prize. Teach thy children the principles of truth and virtue while in their youth and they shall grow up around thee, bless thee in thine old age, and bear thy name in honorable remembrance from generation to generation. Thou shalt also be enabled through prayer and faith to heal the sick of thy family and hold the adversary at bay, that health and peace may reign in thy dwelling, for the Lord knoweth the secrets of thy heart and if thou wilt ask in faith He will hear and answer thy petitions to thy satisfaction. Thy table shall be spread with the bounties of the earth and thou shalt have joy in thy daily avocations. Thou shalt comfort the hearts of the fatherless and give unto the needy. This blessing I seal upon thy head in the name of Jesus Christ and I seal thee up unto eternal life to come forth in the morning of the first resurrection. Even so, amen. |
