Elder Kreyling with new mission President Irion and Sister Irion
Hola familia,
Yes I know I only have 8 months left. It's pretty sad. The time is going by too quickly...
Well, this week we weren't able to teach C. D.. But, he still came to church with his dad. He is reading and praying everyday! He is our one progressing investigator right now. He should have a testimony soon. Once he has a testimony we are thinking of inviting him to ask his mother for permision to be baptized instead of us asking her. We met his mother today and she was friendly with us. I think she will be ok with him getting baptized.
We saw some of the E. family this week. They have another daughter at home now! She just returned from Mexico. Her name is M. if I remember correctly. Hopefully we can start teaching her soon as well. We are going to try to have shorter more frequent visits with them. We are stilling working on the Restoration with them because they still don't seem to grasp the importance of it. Hopefully they will understand it better within the next few visits.
We started teaching a J. G.. He is the only non member of his family. The rest of his family is less active. They are one the rescue plan. So, we are going to try to reactivate the family and get him baptized. We had a member there when we saw him. It was Hermano F. and he bore his testimony of the restoration. It went well. Hopefully we'll see some progress out of him soon.
Do y'all remember G.? He lives really close so we see him a few times a week. But, just recently we've been having lessons with him again. We started reading from the Book of Mormon with him and it seemed to increase his interest a bit more. We are seeing him tonight and we hope he read on his own! 
Well, that's about it for the week. Things are going well here. We hope to see some baptisms in the next little bit. I love y'all! Have a great week and I'll talk to y'all next week!!
Love,
Elder Barry Kreyling
