    NSDateComponents* weekdayComponents = [gregorian components:(NSCalendarUnitDay | NSCalendarUnitMonth | NSCalendarUnitYear) fromDate:today];
    [weekdayComponents setHour:hour];
    [weekdayComponents setMinute:minutes];
    [weekdayComponents setSecond:0];
    NSDate* result = [gregorian dateFromComponents:weekdayComponents];
    return result;
}
