No, I still haven`t gotten either of the packages, which is weird because I`ve gotten a couple of letters recently. Maybe it did get lost somewhere.
I`m kind of bummed out right now because I think I lost my other memory card, the one that has all the pictures I`ve taken since I got to this area. The pictures I sent you last week were from my companion`s camera. I haven`t been able to find my memory card for a couple of weeks now. So, now I have absolutely no pictures from the first year of my mission and I have to buy a new memory card just to be able to take any more pictures.
Well, we still aren`t having the success we`re looking for. Everyone we teach just seems to disappear after 2 visits. Even with their phone number we somehow manage to lose contact with them. However, we started teaching the son of a member and his wife. They seem pretty interested. The only problem is that they`re not legally married, but they seem pretty willing to get married soon. I haven`t had too much success in my mission so far with investigators that aren`t married, but I think these guys are different. It would be a lot easier if the bishops could just do it like they can in the U.S. Here you have to go with a judge and pay a bunch of money. Well, it`s a lot of money for the people here.
This week after the district meeting I took my district to the central bus station to sing and invite people to listen to us. We didn`t have very much success. Most of the people didn`t live in our area or weren`t interested, but it was still fun. There`s two guys in my district that play guitar pretty well and we sung a super cool version of ¨How Great Thou Art.¨
Today Elder Rainford and I played some one on one basketball.
I guess I`m doing pretty good. It`s just so hard for me to feel like I`m ever doing enough, and I´m always so worried about so many people. Sometimes I get frustrated because I feel like they don`t understand, and I wish I could just make them understand, but I can`t.
I love you guys and miss you a ton.
Brett
