Hello Family,

Things this past week have been great. Elder Smith and I are still
working hard and loving the work. We had a new investigator come to
church for the first time and he loved it. His name is Alan Mcgowan.
Good Stuff.

We officially have a new Mission President. We haven't had anything
change yet. We get to meet him as a mission tomorrow and Wednesday.
There was a mission home fireside yesterday though and the Middleton
elders went to it. They told me that President Preston is a VERY
different mission president, but in a good way. I'm pretty excited.

Other than that I've just been talking to the same old crazy, but
great people. Nothing too overly spectacular to report this week. I
love the 4th of July. God bless America!! Elder Smith and I will be
getting some McDonald's shakes to celebrate and watching church movies
at the chapel. This will probably be our last P-day together. Sad
stuff. One, kind of, interesting thing that we did was clean the oven
last night. We noticed last transfer that our oven was just absolutely
horrible, and that what we thought couldn't come off, really could
come off with enough effort. So we bought some heavy duty oven cleaner
about 5 weeks ago and were able to use it for the fist time last
night. It was intense. The directions make it seem like any
unauthorized contact with this stuff is an instant death. It was quite
powerful and an interesting experience to say the least. it got the
job done though. I love clean things.

Well, the gospel is true and life is good. I hope that everyone back
home is doing great and making good decisions. Talk to you soon!

love,

Elder Misbach
