Brother Ruben, I place my hand upon thy head in the name of Jesus of Nazareth, to bestow upon thee a Patriarchal and a Fathers Blessing, and I Seal upon thy head the Blessings of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, with all appartening to the new and everlasting Covenant, even the Blessings of posterity, that thy posterity may be numerous upon the Earth, with houses and lands, flocks and herds, the fruits of the Field and of the Vine, and that you may be valiant to the truth and in the testimony of Jesus Christ and be mighty in proclaiming his gospel to the Sons on Man, and to Nations afar off, live to see Israel gathered, and Zion redeemed, and assist in building up her waste places, be gathered to the center stake, and be a pillar in the Temple of God, when your hair shall be white as the pure wool, have the ministering of holy Angels, and have faith like Elijah of Old, and be filled with inspiration and revelation and discernment, and prophesy, and be a Mighty man in the Lords House, be a comfort, and a blessing to thy parents, all the Day long, and heal the sick, comfort the afflicted in Israel, and be valiant in the Testimony of Jesus. Thou art of the Royal seed of Israel, of the house of Joseph, of the lineage of Ephraim. I Seal these Blessings upon thy head with a Holy Resurection in the Name of the Father Son and Holy Ghost. Amen.
