{Emergency Preparedness for February}

Members of the Church have been counseled for many years to be prepared for adversity. Preparation, both spiritual and temporal, can dispel fear. With the guidance of Church leaders, individual members and families should prepare to be self-reliant in times of personal or widespread emergency.

Three-Month Supply
Build a small supply of food that is part of your normal, daily diet. One way to do this is to purchase a few extra items each week to build a one-week supply of food. Then you can gradually increase your supply until it is sufficient for three months. These items should be rotated regularly to avoid spoilage.

  1. I was told years ago, that little children do not understand the concept of starving to death,and if they don't like something, they just will not eat it, no matter what. If that is true, then it seems important to both teach our children to enjoy food found in our years supply, but also to make sure we have a good 3 month supply on hand of foods that our family enjoys already.
