No one can read Alma’s resume of the experiences of his father with the saints who joined the church at the waters of Mormon; of the Lord’s mercy and long-suffering in bringing them out of their spiritual and temporal captivity; of how by the power of the Holy Spirit, they were awakened from their deep sleep of death to experience a mighty change wrought in their hearts—no one, I say, can contemplate this marvelous transformation without yearning to have a like change wrought in his own heart. – Marion G. Romney, Conference Report, October 1970, First Day-Morning Meeting, p.29
