Trio life 

Title is clickbait I was only in a trio for a day as A "Trainer" with one of the new sister ( Sister Reidhead), her Trainers are Both STLs and they had a conference so She spent majority of the day with us! she was the CUTEST I love her so much. It was a BLAST 

Be friends with EVERYONE 

There this Açai stand that I have bought Açai from probably almost everyday since I have gotten to this area. There is a sweet older lady that works there and I made it my mission to befriend her... everyday we walk past it and I always go out of my way to smile and say hi, or give her a hug, or I yell her name OPA MARIA TUDO BEM COM VOCÊ?? FICA COM DEUS... Well we walked past and she totally stopped me and gave me the biggest hug and was like thank you for being a light in my day, and she gave me a chocolate  come to find out.. She has a friend in the US thats a member and she talks to her about us missionaries and the friend told her she has to meet with us. And now she wants to take the lessons!!!!!!  Sadly tho she is not in our area. 

Then We walked into this jersey store and I  totally made a new friend with this super cool guy named Jurro he was HUGEE and all blinged and Tatted up lol. He let us buy Flamengo Jerseys for 50% off and gave us free socks, then gave us his number and said " If anyone messes with you guys.. call me. MY BOYZ will take care of it "

Pitbull, Rat and kids 

Have to share this story because I am still in shock that I saw it happen before my eyes. 

There was this pitbull that was messing around in this trash, and theres a group of little kids playing on the other side of the street sitting on the ground playing with cars.. welp literally within seconds of us walking by, I see this Huge rat running from the trash to the group of kids and the pitbull is chasing after it. This rat than jumps on one of the kids and its like running all over these kids. And This dog is going NUTS... Me and Sister may just stopped in front of them just watching this all play out, and the next thing you know this dog BITES THE RATS HEAD OFF AND BLOOD GOT ALL OVER THE KIDS... and then the dog is like ripping the rat apart ( literally in shredds) .... ( I am no longer kissing or touching street dogs) 

Tebbs vs Elders.... 

Basically in District council the ZLs came to give a training and they had this game, they picked me and two of the elders and Basically made Us do pushups until we literally couldn't do anymore pushups...  we Basically did an indian Run but with pushups... so we ended up doing ALOT ahah ( was not a very fun game lol) I was very scared to look stuipd because my pushups suck I have gotten so weak on the mission unfortunately....HOWEVER, I held out stronger then the elders so I felt pretty dang good.  ( Video in google photos) 

Feijoada brings miracles 

Sunday was a day of BLESSED tender mercies!! The ward had conference and afterwards they were doing a huge Potluck of Feijoada which is a tradicional meal here which is Beans, with all different kinds of meats mixed in with it, you eat it with Rice, Covey( a veggie) with The sand stuff on top of it called Fulaffa.. def spelled that wrong but I personally LOVE it. 

So this last week we invited EVERYONE you could think of to come to church. We didn't have tons of people come like we thought we would, but we had the most important people come and I was just so thrilled! 

1. The inactive family we have been working so hard with.. finally came

2. Two inactive members we have been helping came

3. Leonardo CAME and presidente clarke talked to him and invited him to be baptized and he said yes  So lets hope and pray next lesson with him we mark a SET date. 

You Reap What You Sow 

Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.” Gal 6:7

My Grandpa ( A former mission President ) 

Sent me a well needed Talk from one of his old Zone conferences. It aline alot with the personal studies I have been doing this past week. Fristly 

Patience

I love this defintion of Patience in PMG "Patience means active waiting and enduring. It means staying with something and doing all that we can—working, hoping, and exercising faith; bearing hardship with fortitude, even when the desires of our hearts are delayed. Patience is not simply enduring; it is enduring well!”- Uchtdorf 

I Dont know why but whenever I used to think of Patience I imagined like someone being really peaceful and meditating  just waiting.... but really its the OPPISITE. Patience is Enduring. It is not being idle, it is taking action and trusting that god is gonna do his part. We do everything we can, then wait for gods timing CHEERFULLY ( D&C 123:17 ) 

As we do all that we can do, be obedient, honoring our convênios, staying Patience (enduring well), 

" we will receive the greatest of all gifts even the gift of Eternal Life. This is the Law of the Harvest. " - Grandpa Jeff Rogers 

As missionárias we are not only reaping for ourselves but are also trying to help others. I am really doing my best to really make the most of my time here, my mission has helped me in so many ways. I am thankful everyday for the wonderful lessons I am learning and for the amazing people that touch my heart each and everyday. 

Remember 

You reap what you sow..... 

Have an amazing week, I love you all! Feel free to email me! I will have time to respond today  

Love, Sister Hallee Tebbs
