Another part of zone conference was a puppet show by Elder and Sister Oaks - serving in Anacostia. This puppet show was developed in conjunction with the church as a way to help young people learn the dangers of smoking and drinking. When it is presented, it is not tied to the church - but is a service. It was presented to all of the missionaries in hopes of having the missionaries provide contacts of teachers who might be interested in this presentation in their classroom.

| Elder Oaks holds one of the characters "tar" who is bad for you. |
 |
| Elder Epperson and Elder Hunt are the puppeteers. They serve in Anacostia with Elder and Sister Oaks. |

| The children (there because their mothers served us lunch) were running around and fidgeting moments before are now perfectly still. |
