Week 2 - in Mexico

Hola amigos y familia!
So this week was quite a bit different from last week. But to start off with what is most important, MY BIRTHDAY! Thank you to all of you who wished me a happy day. It meant a lot being here.
 
Well some things I forgot to mention about Mexico in my last email, for one is that there is no such thing as street names here. Or signs. Or anything of that manner. When you ask where someone lives you ask how to get there and then you ask what color their house and/or gate is. Quite different. It rains EVERY DAY.
 
This week the work got a lot slower and we don't really have anybody to teach since we aren't allowed to contact in the streets or go door to door so we basically have to rely on all of the members to give us people to teach. We have 1 investigator. Its crazy how there are so many people but we aren't allowed to talk to.
 
To end on a spiritual not as well as a picture, have you ever thought of what the Devil does on his down time?  In Lucas 4:9, when Jesus is with the devil on the top of the mountain Satan says. "If you are the son of God, jump off this mountain and IT IS WRITTEN that they will catch you" The Devil reads the scriptures. And I'm sure he knows them better then we do. We need to ever be striving to KNOW the scriptures, continually studying them, and praying to know if they're true, if not we are almost exactly like the devil. Interesting food for though. 
Well Id love to hear more from you all!
Thank you again for all you do!
With Much Love,
Elder Winters
