Sophronia, in the name of Jesus of Nazareth and by virtue of the Holy Priesthood in me vested I place my hands upon thy head and seal upon thee a Patriarchal or father's blessing which shall rest upon thee and thou shalt realize the fulfillment there of. Thou art in the days of thy youth. Thou must hearken to the councils of those whom thy heavenly father has given to direct the way of the youth. Inasmuch as thou wilt do this thy life shall be precious in the sight of thy heavenly Father and thy days shall be multiplied upon the earth. Thou hast left the place of thy nativity, choosing to suffer with the people of God rather than enjoy the pleasure of sin for a season which will return unto thee many fold. Thy guardian angel that hath watched over thee from thy birth will still be with thee. He will shield and protect thee from the influence and power of thy common enemy and from all who would seek injury. Thou art a daughter of Abraham of the Loins of Joseph and the Blood of Ephraim. Thou shalt receive in due time that thou mayest be able to stand in thy proper lot and station in the Redemption of thy progenitors, many of which will be made known unto thee by holy messengers who will come into thy habitation revealing the genealogy of thy fathers. Thou art a mother in Israel. Thou shalt receive thy holy anointing as a queen and a priestess receive thy crown, dominion power and eternal peace and increase thy inheritance with the faithful in Zion. Be thou fruitful, yield not to temptation and these blessings shall be certain unto thee. I seal them upon thy head in the name of Jesus of Nazareth. Even so Amen.
