The Holy Spirit only works in the church, the communion of saints!
Acts 2:1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
The only exception of the Holy Spirit working outside the church is that the Holy Spirit draws men to repentance and to become members of Christ, sanctified by grace thru the sacraments of Christ in His church!
