“I Will Pour Out My Spirit upon Them in the Day That They Assemble Themselves Together”
Doctrine and Covenants 44:1–2
1 Behold, thus saith the Lord unto you my servants, it is expedient in me that the elders of my church should be called together, from the east and from the west, and from the north and from the south, by letter or some other way.
2 And it shall come to pass, that inasmuch as they are faithful, and exercise faith in me, I will pour out my Spirit upon them in the day that they assemble themselves together.
Elder Joseph B. Wirthlin said:
“In general conferences and in other Church meetings around the world, we come together seeking companionship—the good company of brothers and sisters in the gospel and the
comfort of sweet communion with the Spirit of God. In our worship services, the presence of that Spirit fills our hearts with love for God and for our fellow Saints.”
(“Valued Companions,” Ensign, Nov. 1997, 32.)
