Sister beloved of the Lord, in the name of Jesus of Nazareth, I place my hands upon thy head and seal upon you a fathers blessing, even all the blessings of the everlasting Priesthood which was sealed upon the children of Joseph in common with thy companion, giving you power to heal the sick in thine house and to drive the destroyer from thy habitation to preserve the lives of thy children. They will grow very healthy, become mighty in Israel and spread forth upon the mountains like Jacob and be saviors on Mount Zion. It is thy privilege to save thy fathers house with the help of thy companion and friends and bring them up in the first resurrection back to the days of Noah and on to where they died in the Gospel that there shall not be a broken link in the chain from the days of righteous Abel to the dispensation of the fullness of times. Thou shalt be satisfied with one's portions and have all thy companion's blessings sealed upon him and I seal the same upon thee and upon thy children for ever and ever, Amen.
