Companionship can be counted among the most sacred words in the gospel vocabulary.
As full-time missionaries, young elders, sisters and senior couples go out two-by-two to perform their holy charge of finding, teaching and baptizing. Missionaries are taught to look out for and pray for their companions as they would a blood brother or sister.
In like manner, home and visiting teachers are assigned, as companions, to care for their neighbors and fellow members.
Meanwhile, 129 temples operate around the globe allowing worthy men and women to enjoy the blessed companionship of eternal marriage and families.
