Brother Hiram, in the name of Jesus Christ I lay my hands upon thy head to seal a father's blessing upon thee, because thy father is absent, nevertheless thou art entitled to a blessing under my hands. Thou art of the seed and lineage of Joseph, who was sold into Egypt, and an heir to the blessing and priesthood which was sealed upon his head under the hands of his father, which will enable thee to be a Savior on Mount Zion to save thy dead and living friends, and to bring them up in the resurrection of the just, and to reign over them to all eternity, also to push the scattered remnants of Jacob from the ends of the earth, and no power on earth shall stay thy hand, for the Lord has given his angels charge over thee. They will guard thee by night and day, defend thee from all dangers, and no enemy shall prevail against thee, and no bonds nor chains shall stay thy progress. Thou shalt converse with angels from time to time. This shall be thy comfort when thou art far away from thy friends.

Thou shalt accomplish a great mission and bring thy thousands to Zion with their gold and silver and precious things to thine inheritance among thy brethren, and rest in peace with thy companion and a numerous posterity. The number of thy years shall be according to thy faith, even to see the winding up scene of this generation, to see Zion extended and peace established over the whole continent of America. Finally thou shalt have every desire of thy heart, and shall inherit glory, honor, immortality, and eternal life, and I also seal this blessing upon thy posterity forever. If thy faith fail not not one word of this blessing shall fail, for I seal it upon thee by the authority of the Holy Priesthood. Amen.

Sister Naoma, in the name of Jesus of Nazareth I place my hands upon thy head and seal upon you a Patriarchal or Father's blessing. Thou art of the same blood and lineage with thy companion and heir to all the Blessings and Priesthood that is sealed upon him. You shall have faith to heal the sick in your house and among your sex. You shall be blessed in your family according to the desire of thine heart. Your children shall grow up about your table healthy and fair, shall increase like Jacob. No good thing shall be withheld from you. Your store house shall be filled with the best fruits of the earth and in sorrow and trouble you shall be delivered. Angels shall take charge of you. They have watched over you all your days and they never will leave or forsake you. You shall have health, peace, and plenty, the spirit of prophecy and revelation, wisdom to do all things in righteousness, shall be satisfied with the riches of the earth, and possess the riches of Eternal Life. You shall live to see the Redeemer stand upon the Earth, live and reign with him a thousand years, and inherit all the Blessings of his Kingdom with all your fathers house forever and ever. Amen.
