Emma Anne Rigby having the authority of the Melchizedek Priesthood, I lay my hands  upon your head to set you apart as a missionary for the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints with the current assignment to serve in the California Arcadia Mission, and I bestow upon you all the rights, powers, privileges and blessings that go  with the opportunity of being a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. And as a full time representative and  disciple of our Savior Jesus Christ.  Sister Rigby, I bless you that you will find great happiness and joy in going about the Lord’s work.  I bless you that you will find focus, that you will find  happiness as you go through difficult times in your mission striving to do what is right.  I bless you as a missionary that you will be given the opportunity to see the joy that comes through the Atonement of Jesus Christ. That as you testify of the change and the power and  the strength that can  come from relying on him that you will see others change, that you will see others make decisions that separate themselves from this world.  Then you will get on your knees and give thanks for the opportunity that you have to do this work  at this time.  I bless you that you will have a strong testimony of the restoration of the Gospel of Jesus Christ that you will study of  the restoration,  of the church history, that you will understand the coming forth of the Lord’s kingdom and its purposes on this earth.  I bless you that you will have a great understanding of your role in the gathering of Israel and the role that covenants play in that gathering.  I bless you that you will study the gospel every morning that you will stay energized and enthusiastic about learning that as you do so that you will find that  in the moments you need those teachings that the words that need to come to your mind will come that God will fulfill his promise through you, that in the moment you need it he will give  meet unto you the words that you need.  I bless you that you will have courage and strength as  you go forth knowing that you represent Jesus Christ and  that his Kingdom will come.  I bless you will be able to walk and not be weary and that you will be able to run and not faint.  That you will have the strength necessary to lead and guide, that you will know how to guide and how to teach companions that you have, that you will know how to get the best out of them in helping them feel valued and loved.  I bless you that you  will see God’s hand, that you will record the miracles that you have been a part of and  that you will keep an eye single to his glory.  And these blessings I leave upon you and do so in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
