Kirtland Conference 2010

Last fall I had the opportunity to attend a singles conference in Kirtland Ohio, it was an amazing spiritual experience. I totally enjoyed the visitors center, the different sights and the wonderful fireside in the chaple with speaker Karl Rick Anderson, author of "Joseph Smith's Kirtand."
                                                                                  
But by far the most amazing thing was the fireside held in the Temple, as we sang "The Spirit of God" it felt like the spirits of all the saints that had gone before were in the room singing as well. It gives me chills just thinking about it now.

The hymn was sung for the dedication of the Kirtland Temple, 27 March 1836

The Spirit of God like a fire is burning;
The latter day glory begins to come forth
;
The visions and blessings of old are returning;
The angels are coming to visit the earth.

We'll sing and we'll shout with the armies of heaven:
Hosanna, hosanna to God and the Lamb!
Let glory to them in the highest be given,
Henceforth  and forever:amen and amen!
