1 Sunday,~ay6,2007 Dear Noamie -- Type these notes to the individuals and let then read them two or three times, but not keep it. They can read it again later also if desired. Then archive all my notes and writings after people get their messages. Always allow Brother ~erril and Brother Wendell to review any messages they need to remember, and always be helpful to Brother ~erri1 so he understands the directives and does not forget. Help remind him humbly if needed. 1). Dear Colleen -- I am grateful that the Lord and father have allowed you to return to the mission. You should join the prayer circle in the SWlday School room each night, and exert faith to earn the blessings of being together again. The Lord showed me to wam you to beware your weakness of the vanity of liking to be noticed by oilier men or boys. In helping Jen on the boys meals, do not socialize or be around the boys. When on the land, guard your virtue by guarding your thoughts by having the one right thought of only wanting to please God by praying for and pleasing the Priesthood over you. Seek to be beautified by the Spirit of God in your character, and do not be concerned about outward appearance. Purity through humility is the love of the Father perfected, the mind single to living in His approval. Vanity is a worrying about what everyone else thinks of you. Just please God and Priesthood by feeling the witness of burning peace of the Holy Spirit as God's approval guiding you. This is the "eye single to the glory of God" lived moment by moment, considering the reality of the jqy of the increase of the Spirit of God more valuable than any earthly joy or desire fulfilled. Avoid being where men and boys are. Be humble and do not run faster than you are sent in doing things for other men or their families. Do your kitchenjob, help ~other Ruth as a priority, and do your storehouse sewing projects as well as being with Lynette in the garden one or two hours a day. You have received the higher ordinances, and thus much more is required by the Lord of you to perfect your life to be able to receive the blessings in the temple. Live to please God; so much so, that He is real to you and is your best Friend. Stay close to father in your feelings; focus on your eternal covenants, and support the Priesthood over you on earth to qualify for your eternal blessings. Faith includes the eternal vision op'considering the end of your salvation in all things", "seeking the face of the Lord always." I love you with Heavenly Father's and father's love, and desire to always have your heart and mind turned toward them, through Priesthood. ~ay your time away from R17, and now your return to the mission keep you most grateful to be back unto the success of becoming Zion, living unto God. God bless you and be a strength -- 2). Dear ~elinda -- I thank the Lord that He and father showed me the need to have you return to the mission, to be strengthened in your faith and to be a strength. I love you with Heavenly Father's and father's love, and turn you to them. You can succeed and qualify for the greater ordinances and trainings. 1

2 Be most humble. Be more quiet. Do not step forth to correct others. Just be of sweet service. Be in the kitchen early, and WItil bedtime if needed. Go help in the garden one or two hours a day if kitchen duties are not holding you in the kitchen. Have a sewing project done each week for a family member and a second one done each week for the storehouse. Keep up on the trainings, and listen to all you have missed. Even while you are listening to trainings, help with each meal preparation and cleanup, and have a "head-cook" day soon and each month. Remember that your testimony must be stronger than mer mortal logic. You must be childlike and trust in Heavenly Father by trusting in the pure testimony of the Spirit of God; and learn the difference between human emotion and heavenly revelation. Daily, fervently, ask the Lord, morning and night, to increase your testimony of the love for God and Priesthood; and wherever you need to be led or make a decision, first thank Him for your testimony of Him and ask for it to he strengthened; and as you feel the heavenly joy and peace in your Lord then you know you are being led by His Spirit. Do this as your very way of life and He will guide you right, and away from doubts and other dangers to your faith. Do not look back to past challenges. Faith and a heavenly testimony is too busy loving and serving God and one another, moving forward in the good, to be slowed down by past concerns. Forgive yourself. The Lord and all those over you have and do continually forgive and love you. Learn the Spirit of God through sacrifice of selfish feelings. You are there to succeed. God bless you-- Love, 3). Dear Mother Merilyn-- I love you and I am so grateful for you; for you are a great strength in the lives of the family and the Priesthood people. The Lord is strengthening me, and I yeam you will not be overwhelmed 1f.4th eefteem ilh8tlt t:b81"8s8ftt 8'1'8'* an8 Mt88h8 ~&trbt IRe _8 die weae efqeq: Rew iihl:ler'lii sermon on volume 1, page 534 and feel the power of the Prophecy he spoke of the Lord about those who fight against the Priesthood being wasted away. I acknowledge the Lord and father, the Priesthood powers on the other side of the vail bearing influence, in my preservation. The great test and experience I went through from January to April was a training also, and a test described in the new revelations that I am having Naomie let you read. It is a miracle any of us are here. Through this testing I have learned the difference of the two powers of light and darkness more perfectly; and as I stay faithful I know the Lord can turn all things to our good. From my experience will come many accusations against me and our people, as well as the records I had with me being used to attack us. This will have the effect of removing the halfhearted, and also purifying the elect who stay constant WIto God and Priesthood in their loyalty. Be sure you act on the pure testimony of the Spirit of God in all things. My declarations of January and later were declarations of feeling WIWOrthy and an anxiousness to not hold the work of God or individuals back from qualifying for eternal blessings. The Lord has given me a great deliverance in encouraging me to carry on in this mission of the redemption of Zion. There are more for us than against us, considering that the heavens control all things to the glory of God and the exaltation of the obedient. 2

3 I have yeamed over LeRoy, and the Lord still directs to leave him in the Lord's hands. Jim and Richard and even Wallace will soon have some blessing at least restored to them as the Lord guides. God is just and does only right. I hope Seth's house is completed soon so his family can be gathered there. I am yearning for all the people. Be encouraged. You are a blessing and father is near you and the family. God bless you forever -- Your unworthy son.- 4). Please have Isaac get suitcases for the new ones who came to the land at R17 and R23, and you read the letter about exerting faith and oneness to them at R17. We are to exert the faith to stay and succeed; but have their suitcases in readiness. At least seeing the suitcases should wake everyone up to see how real the attacks are, and how real and grand and great are the protections of heaven. 5). Send me a list of the older unmarried daughters of Brother Merril Jessop and Brother Wendell Nielsen and who their mothers are and their exact ages. 6). Remind me any marriages the Lord appointed in the record that have not been done including Uncle Roy's ladies at houses in hiding. I also named two to be given to William E. Jessop; naming the father of the two girls but not knowing the girls names. See if you or Patricia or Kate remember the father's name. 7). Make sure the new arrivals at R17 know to listen to all the trainings they missed; and they can help in the kitchen and house duties for a break each day. Make sure they know their assigned duty also that they will do when done with the trainings. 8). IDform me if there is anyone in the family that does not know their duty to perform; also if they are being too social in the kitchen. 9). Note to Monica: Please get an appointment in Dallas or wherever for SweetMarie to have her cleft pallet and lip fixed. Let me know what it will take. Work with the Presiding Elder on this and Dr. Lloyd Barlow. 10). Note to Millie: Please get an appointment for little Millie to have her nose checked and have surgery to have the growth removed if it is a good time in her life and if it will not leave a worse scar. Work with the Presiding Elder and Dr. Lloyd Barlow on this. I desire to know their recommend. 11). Dear Naomie; Use Patricia to help you get all of these writings typed up and proofread as soon as possible, and tell Brother Merril you have messages from me for him and Brother Wendell to read in my waiting room or office. Help Brother Merril remember the directives when you see he has forgotten, and let both of them reread my messages when they need to 3

4 review. Put the new revelations in my revelation book that I kept in my book bag, and keep it in the safe in my room. Print two copies for archives. Print a copy of the May 4, 2007 revelation for each Elder to read along with Brother Merril in their Special Priesthood Meeting next Friday. Keep asking Isaac for an archive copy of the transcript of that Priesthood Meeting, along with a summary he will prepare to send me. You make sure I get that summary soon. I say to you, Sweet Naomie, stay heavenly encouraged. As time passes, let us not allow doubts to enter into our minds; but exert faith unto a continual witness and testimony that will purify us for the victory to be complete. No one was ready for the greater light. All of us need to increase in peaceful preparation until we know we please God. Everyone who has received the holy anointings has treated that ordinance lightly, and repentance unto the keeping of our covenants is the call for all of us. The Lord is now restoring the holy Sacrament on the lands of refuge and among selected families of the faithful Elders; and this will be a great test upon the people to show the Lord we can keep our covenants with Him. The Sacrament represents the abiding of every covenant of every ordinance we have received. Be peacefully fervent in constant devotion unto God. Reread the January 17, 2004 and April 19, 2004 revelations, and September 6, and September 13,2004 to your prayer group again, and read this note to you, if you would like, to them. I love all of you. Keep your covenants. Make sure all of you repent and overcome any selfish immorality, talking to all of you. The Celestial Law is under the sole direction of the Lord, and He directs and beautifies our connections by Priesthood direction. Remember to think of God and your love for Him, and your love for His character in each other as you look at each other with a prayerful heart to glorify God; and as you hug each. other goodnight for me in the Lord and father, feel the Spirit of God as your bond through Priesthood. Be the most pure women on earth in your connections and with yourself, directable and approved of God in your private actions and thoughts. Thank you for your prayers for me, for each other, and for the work of God. Now learn the Spirit of God and the faith equal to knowledge. You are affecting my deliverance and whether or not the greater knowledge and ordinances will be among as, m; is ever,ofte 011 the Im:1:1ion. gie:n,vill"e reaeemeti "Mit 111' ill Nlttess: :91 f188111l1je: Be Zion. Live in the joy of the increase of the Holy Spirit. You should only be in this prayer circle in the apartment if you are keeping your covenants and have and feel the Spirit of God in you. Bless all others. Do not let pride be a part of you. Live unto God. God bless you Naomie, and all others who read or hear this message. I love you with Heavenly Father's and father's love, our eternal head in the Lord, and above all to God Himself. Love, (Smile father's smile -- I can feel it.) 6). Dear Loretta Jane - The Lord's Spirit whispers to me to warn you to quickly overcome your physical laziness and be on time every day. You are being judged. I love you and with His help you can do it. Be up and help Monica with her children and be a good example to them. Help her wherever she needs. Also do kitchen at times and sewing projects at home for the storehouse under Ora's direction. Seek out Ora to teach you. (Dear Naomie, let Monica and Ora read this. Tell Ora to keep Brenda separate from Loretta 4

7 Sunday, May 4, 2007 Dear Mother Merilyn -- I love you and I am so grateful for you; for you are a great strength in the lives of the family and the Priesthood people. The Lord is strengthening me, and I yearn you will not be overwhelmed with concern about the present events and attacks against me and the work of God. Read father's sermon on volume 1, page 534 and feel the power of the Prophecy he spoke of the Lord about those who fight against the Priesthood being wasted away. I acknowledge the Lord and father, the Priesthood powers on the other side of the vail bearing influence, in my preservation.

9 Note to Isaac Jeffs - In the Friday Special Priesthood Meeting for selected brethren, you be scribe. There will be twenty-four men present, which includes the First Presidency brethren. Naomie will print enough copies of the revelation and number each one. Please make sure all copies get back to Naomie. Also, please transcribe the meeting quickly, and give a copy to Naomie for my archives. Send me a summary not printing the revelation or my messages I wrote that were read, but include what the other men said and the summary of the business taken care of. Also, make sure I get an accurate list of who is at each house in hiding including Shem's, and who is on Rl and R23. I told Brother Merril Jessop to have Eldon Johnson come to R17 to help with the animals, and I am sure he can help with the "black buck" problem. We want to maintain a healthy deer population for times of starvation and need, and work with Brother Merril and inspiration guiding all of you to preserve a healthy herd, as many as we can keep on the land. God bless you forever -- (Also report on your ladies who are not gathered yet, and your recommend for each being ready to keep the redemption of Zion covenants.) I hope in you transporting the ladies, they are hearing the land of refuge training, and you are placing them under covenants and turning in to Naomie a written record of the same. Thank You -- WSJ Also, help Brother Merrll Jessop contact the men who are appointed to meet on Friday. Naomie will give both of you a list. Thank you - WSJ 1) William E. Jessop 2) Lyle Jeffs 3) Nathan Jessop 4) Stephen Harker (R23) 4) Boyd Roundy (23) 6) Donald Richter (Rl) 7) Nephi Jeffs 8) Lindsay Barlow 9) Lloyd Barlow 10) Isaac Jeffs ll)jimoler 12) Spencer Blackmore 13) Richard Blackmore (Brandon's son who helped on the temple) 14) Zane Blackmore (Brandon's son who helped on the temple) 15) MacRae Oler 16) leroy Steed 1

Do nq! let any copies leave the land from that meeting. Brother MenH Jessop will take his with him on next weeks traveling and you need to go with the First Presidency and be a scribe and bring back and prepare the record of the journey and meetings and give the record to Naomie for my archives when prepared. -- WSJ Give Spencer Blackmore ten thousand dollars from Brother Merril Jessop for family maintenance. Ifhe cannot get it across the border, then Jim Oler can arrange deposits in the states and transfer it through banks -- WSJ :biqw to Spencer BJackmoEe for haac Ieffs to read to bjm- Dear Brother Spencer - While you are at R17, get any trainings of my recorded phone calls and transcripts to take for the ladies to use. Also, arrange with Nephi Jeffs a way for him to call you on a speaker phone for my ladies to listen to when I call Nephi to transfer my voice to your house. The ladies will be able to hear me, but I will not be able to hear them. Be most careful on how you take the disks and transcripts across the border. Thank you for your working with them to prepare for Zion. If your family can keep confidences, they can listen to the recordings also, and they can listen to my phone calls also. But not even the children can tell others outside the household of my calls. Keeping the Lord's confidence is life. Do all you do by the pure testimony of the Spirit of God. A person must know they have the Holy Spirit first to do so. I love you in the bonds of the holy Melchizedek Priesthood. Tell the ladies I love them and to be the Spirit of God in action increasingly; and to now pray night and day for deliverance so we can be together again. Preserve what is entrusted to your care with your very life. 2

11 If you need anything contact Isaac Jeffs. Please train my ladies along with your family, and administer the Sacrament to them. May the Lord bless you and prepare you and yours for the fulness of Zion. Privately tell your father: "God bless you and I love you." Thank you -- WSJ -- Move Sheena to the Warren Steed's house. Isaac please call Mary and Brendd and Raymond and tell them this message: (To prepare quickly and to be more spiritually minded, and overcome all jealousies and selfish will, and the Lord will soon gather them.) 3
