Brother Clarence Prestwich in the authority of the Holy Priesthood I lay my hands upon thy head and give unto thee a blessing. Thou art of the seed of Ephraim and through the councils of thy Heavenly Father thou hast been chosen to come upon a mission to this Earth to assume a body and bear thy part in establishing the truth and redemption of Zion. Thy guardian angel was sent with you and if you remember your past life you will realize that he has preserved you from many evils and dangers. Thy life shall be precious in the sight of thy Heavenly Father and if thou shalt be prayerful and obedient unto the councils of the priesthood, thy life shall be preserved unto thee. The angels of the Lord shall be around about thee to guard thy footsteps. If you will be humble and seek the Lord, thou shalt have the revelations of the All Mighty to guide you and you shall be forewarned of any dangers that shall beset thy path.
Thou shalt be privileged to receive more blessings in the house of the Lord and have a companion that shall be suitable to thy condition in life, who will be a wise councilor and adviser unto you. And thou shalt have a numerous posterity and live to see an overflowing scourge to go forth upon the land. If you live, it will be through your faith and being able to control conditions and receive thy inheritance and reign as a king and prince unto the Lord. And the visions of the All Mighty shall be opened unto you through faithfulness in keeping the commandments of the Lord. And I seal these blessings upon you to come forth in the morning of the first resurrection and receive your crown. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
