Week 34: Gift of Tongues


Hey everybody, 
Yes this week I received a miracle through the gift of tongues. Probably just not the way you are thinking. I was on exchanges with the zone leaders and we went and taught a lesson, the lady came out from the back with a plate of strawberries (one of my least favorite fruit), covered in a soy sauce tasting syrup. It was an absolutely disgusting plate of food, my mouth threw up a little just looking at it. But by a miracle I was able to clean the plate and not upset the investigator.

Another miracle that happened this week was my comp and I were contacting and looking for new people to teach. When my companion had the random thought to visit an old investigator he had only heard of before. He didn't know where she lived, what her name was, or anything about her. But we followed the spirit, and with a lot of help we were able to find her house. It was crazy how much the spirit impacted us in that moment. The investigators name is Pierina and should hopefully be baptized in 3 weeks if she gets permission from her parents. 

That was about it for the week, here are just some other funny stories. On Sunday we had a member bring a baby chicken to church with her, it was in her little bag, and in the middle of sacrament meeting we just heard chirping coming from her bag. Then later on Sunday, we saw a super drunk guy buy an old fish from the market, and with out cooking it, cleaning it or anything just started biting off chunks and eating this raw, warm fish. It was disgusting. There was also a big strike and people burnt tires in the middle of the highway and shut down our little town and nobody could leave or come in. We also found a guy who told us he didn't know how to read, but about five minutes later I forgot and asked him to read a scripture for us, it was really embarrassing and my companion laughed for a while after we left the lesson.

It was the best week ever! Many more adventures to come! 
Love, 
Elder Luke Gruber
