Rachel Ann Rencher's Blessing - December 30, 2012

Blessing given by Mitchell J. Rencher, father.

Heavenly Father, By the power of the Holy Melchizedek Priesthood we take this infant in our arms to give her a name and a blessing.  The name we have chosen at this time, Father, is Rachel Ann Rencher. At this time we would like to give you a blessing, Rachel.  We bless you with continued health and strength throughout your life that you can accomplish those things that Father in Heaven would have you accomplish here on earth. Rachel, we bless you that you can maintain your sweet temperament and continue to be a help unto your mother and your brother and your sister. You have been blessed with a wonderful support system as is evidenced today.  We bless you with the ability to recognize those abilities and skills and talents which you have been blessed with and others in your support system are blessed with. We bless you with the capacity to learn and the love of learning that you can gain an education, not only formally but informally, you can surround yourself with friends and family that will bless your life and sustain you while you are here on earth. Rachel, we recognize that there are guardian angels around you throughout your life.  You are a sweet spirit and you have blessed your family and you will continue to bless your family. We bless you with the ability to make correct choices and listen to the Spirit and that when you are eight years old you will choose to receive the gift of the Holy Ghost that he may be your permanent companion and help you make those correct choices that will bring you happiness in this life and in the world to come. We bless you that when the time is right you will seek a worthy companion who will take you to the Temple, will become sealed to you for time and all eternity; that you will be blessed with the skills and abilities you will need as a mother and as a representative of Jesus Christ here on earth. We bless you with these things and any other blessings that your Heavenly Father has in store for you and do so in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
