dear mom, did mo get his b doy card? they told me that those take two stamps usually after i dad already sent it, so i hope it got there. i also dropped a letter in the mail for u on monday, i didn{t have enough stamps so i sent u a couple letters for u so send to my friends if u could do that for me please. things here are getting harder, the language is getting tougher and they don{t give us a lot of time to practice, on saturday we went out tracting for 6 hours, it was crazy. we were in the richer part of town so a lot of the people didn{t want to listen. it was really hard to understand, and before lunch i was really frusrtated, but i knew i needed to be possitive so we prayed on our way to lunch, our area was about 45 minutes of fast walking from the chapel we hasd to eat at, and asked for patience and help. aafter lunch we were able to contact two younger men who were interested and we taught them for like 40 minutes abd gave them books of mormon. it was really cool. untill i heard that my friends who went to the poor areas placed 6 bom and got into houses and all kinds of cool stuff. the poor people were a lot humbler. elder schafer was in an area tracting in the slums when a guy got shot and killed like a block away, it was crazy, then another couiple missionaries in my district contacted a man, and asked if they could start with a prayer, and when they finished and opened therir eyes he was gone! haha so u never know what to expect down here. on sunday things went really good, im thinking u were fasting for me cause i was able to start understanding native speakers a lot better,, i understood the man in out devo really really well, so whatever u were doing i liked a lot! haha well, this is my last week with elder cumes before he hits the field and i get a new comp. ive learned a lot from him. anyway, everything here is good, if u could also send some pics with dads letters that would be great, go through my boxes and send pics from dances, friends family sports, anything u could fing, and i would love one of sage. and could u forward this to people like cass danica and others that woudl want it, i don{t have time to type long ones for everyone today. thanks, i love u so much, con amor, elder donaldson
