That depends on your view point of "successfullness" or the lack of it.
*Healing those that can be healed with medicines and the healing power of Christ to some would be considered successful.
*Bringing healthy and clean water and digging wells for clean water for villagers and then teaching them how to clean their water is a success to some as well.
*Teaching children and adults to read, do math, science, and learn their history is another form of success to others.
*Building churches, schools, and hospitals so that natives can learn and do these things themselves is considered by MANY to be something successful.
As far as being unsuccessful, idk.
