I requested a copy of my patriarchal blessing and received an email confirmation that it is now available on my lds.org account but have not been able to locate it. Any idea where it should be?
Thanks!

Same issue. Same insight. Use the link in the post immediately before yours that answered the same question from two posts ago.Hockeyhires wrote:I'm having the same issue and would appreciate any insight on this as well.
Because you will sign in using your LDS Account, the system will know which patriarchal blessing to present to you.

I have tried six times using links, typing in link addresses and following all the directions but am not gettin any further than the My Blessing page with my name on it telling me my request has been fulfilled. Then I'm right back to the same directions which never get me to the actual document. I sign in to my account successfully each time..

I was able to get to a PDF of my blessing by clicking on my name next to the green circle. I didn't see that my name was a link at first – maybe that will help.

I lost my patriarchal blessing hard copy, and I have requested for it to be viewed on my Lds account, still they keep telling me that it can't be found.
I gave all the necessary information I needed to give, both my patriarch name, my stake and district, my full church record name, date of birth, and every other information that's very important, but they can't find it.
What should I do?

If you received the blessing recently (in the last 6-12 months) it may be that the patriarch has not sent the blessing to Church headquarters. Whether or not that is true, you may wish to ask your clerk or bishop to inquire with the stake. They may have some insight in the status of the submission of the blessing.akwugo1989 wrote: Mon Jun 12, 2023 2:10 am I lost my patriarchal blessing hard copy, and I have requested for it to be viewed on my Lds account, still they keep telling me that it can't be found.
It is also possible that the patriarch may be able to give you another copy until it gets submitted to headquarters.

The patriarch who gave you your blessing should provide you the original copy of the blessing. If it has been less than three months since the blessing then contact the patriarch. After that go to the Church website, click the Resources menu, click Patriarchal Blessing at the bottom of the menu, and submit a request to receive an electronic copy of your blessing which can be printed if you so desire.Cr10uz88 wrote: Mon Dec 18, 2023 7:10 am I have not received or I am unable to locate my Patriarchal Blessing please help
The Tech Forum is user-to-user discussion and self help support. Nobody here can get a copy of your blessing for you. Follow the instructions above to get a copy of your blessing.

Sorry I lost my patriarchal blessing

Did you read and then try what was suggested in the post immediately before yours? That is your solution.Sorry I lost my patriarchal blessing

It’s located under resources when you click on the three lines in the upper left hand corner. Down at the bottom of the resources list you’ll see the option for your patriarchal blessing.

If your parents are alive, you might see if any of them have a copy of your blessing, if the above advice doesn't yield results.

I'm pretty sure the church has a paper copy of all the blessings. It might require a request to get them scanned and added to your account, but they should have them.

You can request your own blessing here: https://pb.churchofjesuschrist.org/pbre ... e/personal The page says it, "may take up to 1 month" for your own blessing. My guess is they're most likely on microfilm or microfiche rather than paper.
Community Administrator
Maybe. But mine from the early 80's looks like a paper scan to me. It doesn't have the microfilm artifacts I usually see in Family History. But it does have artifacts from a paper scan. The properties say 200 DPI bitonal.rmrichesjr wrote: Mon Feb 10, 2025 6:13 pm My guess is they're most likely on microfilm or microfiche rather than paper.

I have a member of my ward who was able to see her son's patriarchal blessing but can't see it any longer. Is there a reason for this or how would she go about getting the system fixed so she can still see his patriarchal blessing?
Community Administrator
If the child is deceased, she can request it by going to the main page > Patriarchal Blessings > click on the link to Family Blessings. That page only allows for deceased direct-line induvials, such as parents, grand parents, or children and grandchildren.ligonrl wrote: Thu Mar 13, 2025 7:41 am I have a member of my ward who was able to see her son's patriarchal blessing but can't see it any longer.

If the son is not deceased, it was likely an error that has been corrected.

I don't know if members should be able to see their children's patriarchal blessings, but if they should, it might be limited to children attached to the same household in membership records, or it might be limited to children under a certain age.russellhltn wrote: Thu Mar 13, 2025 10:29 am…ligonrl wrote: Thu Mar 13, 2025 7:41 am I have a member of my ward who was able to see her son's patriarchal blessing but can't see it any longer.

Ward clerks don't have access to it. However, you can request it yourself - please review post #11 of this thread (viewtopic.php?t=27644&start=10#p246610) for instructions. Your ward clerk should be able to show you how to request it yourself if the instructions don't make sense.ireneschwenke wrote: Tue Mar 25, 2025 8:32 pm CAN YOU PLEASE POINT ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION FOR A COPY OF MY PATRIARCHAL BLESSING, I HAVE REQUESTED IT THROUGH VARIOUS WARD

I have made a request to receive a copy of my Patriarchal Blessing. My name is Donalda [removed], but I received it under the name of Donalda [removed], from [removed]. in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Can you tell me when I can expect to receive the copy. I live at [removed]. Thank you.

I doubt if it will be mailed to you. It will be added to your account under pb.churchofjesuschrist.org. You can then download and print it from there.youngdonna wrote: Thu Mar 27, 2025 6:03 pm I have made a request to receive a copy of my Patriarchal Blessing.

Just for reference, this is the message I got back in 2019 when I requested my patriarchal blessing:
Dear Hltn, Russell,
Thank you for your request. The patriarchal blessing you requested is now available to view online. To view the blessing:
1. Go to the following website: https://pb.lds.org/pbrequest/
2. Sign in with your LDS Account
3. Click on "My Blessing"
4. Click on your Name or Family Members Name (Highlighted in Blue)
We no longer print, mail, or email patriarchal blessings. However, you may print from the electronic version. Because of the sacred nature of patriarchal blessings, we ask that you share blessings with immediate family members only. Please do not distribute blessings electronically on the Memories section of FamilySearch, social media, websites, or blogs.
Sincerely,
Patriarchal Blessing Fulfillment Team

Sign in to your account on the church website. On the left hand upper side of the screen is a stack of lines…pancake square. Open that to show: My home, Libraries, Serve, News, About Us. Below those prompts is Resources. Click Resources. Click the Patriarchal Blessing link the bottom.

Just to be clear, those instructions are for a small screen device such as a smart phone. On a computer, laptop, or tablet look for the waffle icon, resources icon, on the right side of the menu bar. Click it and the Patriarchal Blessing link is at the bottom of the list just above the "All Resources" button.lprp8 wrote: Sun May 18, 2025 11:33 amSimple answer:ireneschwenke wrote: Tue Mar 25, 2025 8:32 pm CAN YOU PLEASE POINT ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION FOR A COPY OF MY PATRIARCHAL BLESSING, I HAVE REQUESTED IT THROUGH VARIOUS WARD

I can't find my patriarchal blessing in my account 
Community Moderators
Are you sure you're signed in to your account? Can you see your ward's/branch's directory and map? If not, then please sign in to your Church Account.
If you're using a mobile device (smart phone, for example), please see the quoted portion of the post immediately before ours.
If you're using a desktop-type web browser, go to the Church website main page and scroll all the way to the bottom. In the menu near the bottom of the page, the right-hand column is labeled 'Resources'. At least for me today, the next-to-last item is 'Patriarchal Blessing'. That link will take you to a page where you can request your blessing.
