Hello everyone. Greetings. Peace. Love. Respect. Blessed. haha Things are going awesome over here in Jamaica. This past week has been pretty busy, but it ended with a baptism. So no complaints ever on this side. This week, we were training missionaries in Negril and Montego Bay, and then we had a zone conference in Sav-La-mar. so we were sadly out of our area for a while. On Sunday, we baptized the daughter of a recent convert that we have been teaching for about 6 weeks. It was cool to see how happy they were. It was definitely a special moment. That family will always hold a special place in my heart. I have loved teaching them. being a missionary is just great. it is awesome. I love serving others and serving God. Today, I have been pondering on the grace of Jesus Christ that comes via His Atonement. The power of Christ's atonement is more than just raising us from the dead. The power of Jesus Christ's atonement enables us to become new creatures. It enables us to be transformed. It enables us to become gods. It enables us to change. Without it and without Him we are as dross. It is impossible to change our natures to a godly nature on our own. We may change our actions, but we cannot change our natures to a godly nature on our own. How do we experience the power of His amazing grace? we just need to put our full and complete trust in Him. We must do everything He asks of us regardless of our fears and consequences. I have seen many lives transformed from His amazing grace. I have seen my own life transformed from His amazing grace. I know that Jesus Christ lives and that He is the Son of God. In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
Love,
Elder Nugent
