Today is going to be an interesting day Elder. -Elder Tucker

I have found out this week that Heavenly Father is truly a father indeed and loves his "Dad jokes".  His are a little bit more real  than the ones we are used to though.  Needless to say I almost regretted saying that on Thursday morning.  All of the stories today come from that day.

Story Number 1: "I was this close. This close" - "Mighty Ducks 2".

 I know I told some of you this but maybe not all.  When I was getting transferred, I really wanted to go to a cycling area.  While our car was in the shop, there was no other car to use but there were bikes!  I said, we would take the bikes!.  It was fun for a little while until Elder Smith's bike had a flat tire.  We had no pump.  So we walked to a gas station a ways away.  Pumped up the tire and about as quick as it was pumped up it was flat again.  So we didn't get to ride bikes to much unfortunately,  That is the reason we were walking. We just need a new tube and then we can figure something out with them.

Story number 2:  "Are you doing this to get out of going to church?"- ER Nurse

Also this day we had a trip to the local emergency room,  do not worry everyone is fine and dandy. It was just that he didn't eat.  Since we didn't have a car that day and the bikes were not able to work we were walking. Previously we had decided to go on splits that day so we could see more people.  Whilst we were walking across Mother well my temporary companion/fellowshipper was doing very well but then kind of started zoning out during our only lesson that day.  He is usually a spaz so I didn't think to much of it.  As we were leaving that appointment he started acting more funny and as we were walking he looked very drunk.   Luckily a members house was a round the corner and I had some water on me, I thought maybe he was dehydrated. I gave him some water and we went to the member's home.
     Then I remembered he was diabetic- didn't know which type, and he was showing symptoms of low blood sugar. Not drunk- definitely an altered level of consciousness! I started treating that by giving him fruit juice while getting in contact with my companion; then used my fellow shippers phone to contact the senior couple in the area. They had a car. Too quickly he was unable to speak but I knew he could still listen, and he was still able to swallow. The Senior couple arrived and we gave him a short short blessing and went to the hospital. Turned out his blood sugar was very low. At the ER they put him on an IV with dextrose in it, and he is doing very well now!  I was glad to use my Lifegard/EMT skills! It was a testament to me that the spirit brings all the things to your remembrance in the very hour and at the very moment you need it. 

We had two baptisms this week of awesome investigators!

 Also a family baptism!  Here are Pictures:

One is of everyone, and then the young women I baptized.  Then the last one is of one of our members and one of my best friends!  Their names are S. and L.That's what I have for you, sali kahle. Elder Tucker
