I'm not taking that bait, Tex. Just providing a source for people too cheap to invest in books (you might recognize them as people always asking for 'links.')
I personally like the idea of sisters secretly continuing to bless each other. Whether or not it's appropriate is not my call to make.

Tex, women have the priesthood. They just don't go through the ordinances and such.

On my mission, a woman bore her testimony...
Her dog was giving birth and having a hard time. She asked her inactive husband to give it a blessing. He refused. So she gave it a blessing instead, and the dog and pups were ok. She testified to the power of God through healing. I was kind of dumbfounded at the time. But I've grown up a little since I was 19, and I think it's pretty cool now. |

1. When someone states something that appears to be presented as fact rather than as opinion, asking for a link is a means of seeing what the fact is based on, if anything. 2. When someone mentions something that is new or interesting, asking for a link is an honest desire to read up on the subject and explore further if need or interest dictates. |
