Transfer 13, Week !May 20, 2013

A great week to what is gonna be an awesome transfer!
On Monday, Elder Watkins called Alberto to say goodbye and Alberto (our recent convert) told him a little saying from his "pueblo".
 
Tuesday was Transfer day, I said goodbye to Elder Watkins and put him on the transfer van and off he went to San Francisco.  While I waited for the Transfer van to come back, I went with Elder Greenawalt ( from Arizona!) to buy a $3 burrito.  When the Transfer Van I took a picture with Elder Reyes and Hermana Croft, who both went home.  They were both in my first district!  I am the only one left from my first district!  So crazy!
 
We taught Los Carrada this week and the mom told us that she knows the Church is true.  She has seen the changes in her family.  But they still won't accept a baptismal date.  

Friday we helped with some service at the Greek Orthodox Church right below the temple.  We helped them move tons of desks upstairs in preparation for a Greek Festival!
 
Los Rodriguez came up for a Visitor's Center lesson.  We invited the mom to prepare to enter the temple and invited the children to one day get married in the temple. We asked the 6 year-old daughter "What is a princess?" and she said "Someone who gets married in the temple"

The Mother's day activity was AWESOME!  There  was some crazy dance moves that i will want to replicate when I get home.

And the great miracle of the week....: The Mejia family got their marriage license! They committed to stop drinking coffee by friday!  If they do they will be baptized in JUNE!!!!!!!!!  
 
That's the work here in Oakland!
