Well here is what happened
Well there is not that much new here in Blair but we are trying to get something going. Well the area is very big and without a car it is hard to see all the people that we have heard are ready to be thought. Well the mission president thinks that he well try to get a car up there to help us get to those that are ready. There hasn't been a baptism there in about a year or so have a great week.

Hey,
I found this on another blog. Maybe it applies...
"There is one other thing I learned about failure through my mission (I don't say "on my mission" because I didn't figure it out till I returned). It is an extension of the idea that the Lord knows where everyone is and what they need. That includes me. He knows who I am and what I need. That might include struggling with an investigator or a companion for months, even though the Lord knows they are not going to "make it," at least while I am around. I feel like I have failed because I did not "save" them, but the Lord had no intention of me "saving" anybody—He does all the saving anyway."
I don't know if this is for you, or not. Maybe you can use it. Here's the whole post, if you want it:

Hey, it's great hearing from you. Sorry you are having a hard time starting out in your area. Hopefully things turn around for ya. Maybe you'll get a car. Are you riding bikes? Because if so, maybe the Lord knows you could use the excercise. Just kidding. But seriously, if you are riding a bike, be careful (espcially if there's snow)

Mike, I think you are great. I admire you for serving an awesome mission. I appreciate you being a good example for my kids to look up to because they don't have a single cousin on my side that has gone on a mission yet. It's kinda frustrating from a Mom standpoint, so, thanks. You're loved.
