Hello!

I hope you had a happy Canada day! I sure did. 4th of July, however, was a different story. I guess because everyone was on vacation or something, no one was home. We planned for over 15 people to see (which would, in a perfect world, take 15 hours); we sat down with no one and ended up finding all day (with no return invites).

We recently got a new branch mission leader (we haven't had one since I got here) and he's real excited about the calling. Speaking of which, on Canada day, they invited us over for supper and I got to try buffalo for the first time. (They're also the ones who fed us steak last time.)

We also got our new mission president, President Robison. We’ll get to meet him tomorrow for interviews. (I need to get a haircut before that!)

Transfers are on the week of the 15th and 16th. It would be nice to see other places, but I really want to see the family we've teaching get baptized (possibly on the 20th!...if they can quit smoking on time).

Anyways, if there's anything else to write about, I've forgotten it.

Talk to you later!

Love you,

-Elder Brandon Wong
