Kingston Jamaica Stake History
Between 1976 and 1978, the membership of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Jamaica consisted of three individuals: Victor E. Nugent, his wife, Verna, and their son, Peter.
In 1974, the Nugents became the first native Jamaican LDS converts. Unfortunately, economic and political upheaval forced the small branch’s priesthood leaders and their families to depart from the Caribbean island, leaving the Nugents all alone. The Florida Fort Lauderdale Mission was their closest LDS neighbor.
Determined to remain faithful, the Nugents held church meetings in their home. Victor Nugent didn’t hold the priesthood, so sacrament meeting wasn’t an option, but they could have Sunday school, Relief Society and Primary. They sang hymns, offered prayers and took turns giving talks. They even introduced the gospel to another family.
“It was a special time for us. We studied and learned,” Victor Nugent said in an interview with the Deseret News. “I think we learned more about the gospel during those two years than any other time in our lives.”
Nearly four decades later, the Nugents contrasted that sweet memory with witnessing the organization of Jamaica’s first stake.
Elder Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve presided over the historic event that filled the chapel with more than 800 members June 8.
