Someone in our ward recently shared a story about the very thing he mentioned; that the gathering is for everyone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">This man\u2019s great-grandmother was a teenager, in Scotland, when her family heard the missionaries. A neighbor family shunned them, screaming at them in the public square that they were all going to Hell. The family slowly made their arduous journey to the Salt Lake Valley. As they arrived at one of the staging cities to prepare to go out west, they ran across this neighbor who had berated them in public. Being so taken by these young members of the church, the neighbors had to know why they were willing to leave all that they knew, and ended up gaining a testimony and setting off for Zion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.churchofjesuschrist.org\/study\/general-conference\/2002\/10\/the-marvelous-foundation-of-our-faith?lang=eng\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pres.
