Sister Bennion in the authority of the Holy Priesthood and in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I lay my hands upon your head and bless you with a patriarchal blessing. I bless you with bodily health and strength. Thy lineage is in Ephraim, through the loins of Joseph. The Lord is well pleased with all the labor that you have done upon the earth, and your children after you shall sing your praises and remember you in sweet remembrances, and the Lord will comfort your heart and will give unto you much wisdom and knowledge, and you shall minister wisely amongst your sex and fear not nor tremble, but speak as the Lord will give you utterance. For he shall be with your mouth even as he was with the prophet Moses, the leader of Israel. Your words shall be full of good counsel that shall be a benefit to all those who shall hear it, and thy name shall live in the memory of the saints, even as thy husband's name lives in the memory of the saints, for neither you nor he shall ever be forgotten. You shall yet minister in the temples of the Lord and complete a great work for the redemption of your dead, and they shall look upon you forever as their savior and as the one who did the work for them that they could not do themselves. Thy name shall be honored among the living and the dead. You shall have dreams and visions that shall be a comfort to you in your declining years. You shall live to see many changes. You shall live to see the power of God increased amongst the people of the Latter-Day Saints and you will aid in that work.

You shall constantly teach the principles of righteousness and virtue and in doing so you will be surprised in the light that God shall give unto you and the words that you shall speak, and therefore I say unto you again, fear not nor be dismayed in their presence. For the Lord desires to speak through you to the daughters of Zion. You will be able to strengthen them in their faith and give them proper counsel. They shall come to you for counsel, and you shall not be wanting in imparting to them that which shall be a blessing unto them. Thou hast been faithful and true to all your covenants. Thou art of the royal seed, the chosen seed, and he will sustain you forever and you and yours shall be redeemed from the grave to mingle with the sanctified to sing Hosannas unto the Lord forever. You were preserved to come forth in this last age to perform a great work, thou hast been blest with sons and daughters that will honor thy name forever. Sister Bennion, be comforted and realize that the Lord loves you. You will make your calling and elections. You shall be an elect lady. You shall stand in the presence of the Redeemer and as long as you live you will associate with prophets and apostles. For thy name and good works are known among them, and your name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life. I seal these blessings upon you, with blessing of eternal life to come forth in the morning of the first resurrection, with thy husband, friends and children in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
