Book of Mormon Ether 12:15
"it was the faith of Ammon and his brethren which wrought so great a miracle among the Lamanites"
Book of Mormon Alma 23:6
"through the preaching of Ammon and his brethren, according to the spirit of revelation and of prophecy, and the power of God working miracles in them"

Third hero in Moroni's faith-litany. Alma 23:6 is the tightest single-verse anchor -- it shares the distinctive collocation 'Ammon and his brethren' verbatim with Ether 12:15 and pairs it with 'the power of God working miracles' and the Lamanite conversion the same verse closes on ('as many of the Lamanites as believed in their preaching, and were converted unto the Lord, never did fall away'), the closest single-verse statement of the converting miracle Moroni indexes (the mass conversion of Alma 23-24). The runner-up was Alma 26:12, Ammon's own retrospective boast -- 'many mighty miracles we have wrought in this land' -- which shares the verb 'wrought' but not the 'Lamanites'/conversion frame. Paraphrase, not shared-phrasing: the load-bearing match is the event/referent, restated in Moroni's own words; 'Ammon and his brethren' is an incidental proper-name collocation, not coined phrasing.
