So this week was great I saw some pretty cool places like a salt mine I guess you would call it. Just this massive grid of salt ponds where they separate the salt from the water. You can walk way out into the middle on tiny paths. If you look close you'll see them. We also went to the beach to repair fish nets with a member. Every Tuesday all of the fisherman stop what they are doing (fishing) because everyone knows its bad luck to fish on a Tuesday. The fish rip up the nets throughout the week so every week they go and check every square inch of net. There is so much net! They are very careful they wouldn't let me do it without them supervising me haha. It was cool it reminded me a lot about the Savior showing his apostles where to fish. Rely on Christ but by all means fix your nets so he can help us. As we are continually striving to be better (fixing the fish nets) we will feel the Saviors love and feel closer to him. It takes action and work before we can get anywhere but its possible.
