Sister Laura, beloved of the Lord, in the name of Jesus Christ I place my hands upon thy head and seal upon you the blessing of a father, even all the blessings of the new and everlasting covenant. The eye of the Lord has been upon you from everlasting. He designs to make you great in Israel. He will give you a name among thy seed that shall never be blotted out. You are of the blood of Ephraim and shall have an inheritance in the land of Joseph. You shall be blessed with health, peace, and plenty. Your posterity shall increase like Jacob and spread upon the mountains like Israel. You shall prosper in all your undertakings, shall live in peace with your family, have all things which your heart desires, be able to heal the sick in your family, hold the priesthood in common with your companion, have part in the first resurrection with all your Father's house, and inherit a kingdom and dominion that shall never be taken form you, even so, amen.
