Well,
The hour has come for the last letter home. I honestly can`t
believe it. It still doesn`t feel real. But, this week on Thursday I fly to
Iquitos so I really only have until Wednesday in my area here in Pucallpa. It
really is bittersweet and really odd to think that it is coming to an end. I
feel ready but at the same time I don`t want it to end.
Russ told me that the last week can have some miracles and I
can echo that thought because I pretty much already had my last week and I was
so full of gratitude and love for my Savior. Well, we had another surprise
opportunity to give talks this Sunday. At least this time they told us when
we got to church and not when they were announcing the speakers. I was able to
bear my testimony of the Savior and how much I love Him. What an honor it was
for my last Sunday in my ward. And this week we had the baptism and
confirmation of Hno Jose. It was such a blessing and miracle to be part of his
conversion. This man wanted nothing to do with the church for years and then
didn`t want to commit to a baptismal date for more than a year! What an
incredible change of heart he has had, I know that his wife will follow his
faithful example.
Well, I will be home next week. I don`t think I will write
next week so don`t worry about writing me. I will just tell you all in
person.
I love you all so, so much and I love my Savior and His
gospel that I will have the pleasure of sharing this last week in my
mission.
See you soon!
Hermana Fitzpatrick
