Emergency Prep Video, Club, and More

Emergency Preparedness Class
If you missed the very motivating and informative Emergency Preparedness Class or any part of it, Debbie Kent (the speaker) has videos of many of her classes on her website. Here is the link to the class she presented to us - Building Your Ark Class Video. The video is about 1 hour. I also have more copies of the handouts if anyone is interested - I can send them to you or give them to you on Sunday.

Mark Van Slooten has access to free 55 gallon water barrels if anyone is interested. He can get 1 or 2 each week. In some cases they don't have the small plug in the lid so you may have to order those separate. Let me know if you would like one.

Emergency Prep Club
A few of us were talking about starting an Emergency Prep Club to help keep us motivated and not so overwhelmed as we build our food storage and gather preparedness materials. The club would meet once a month - we would set individual goals for each month and report back to each other. Some activities may include - watching Debbie Kent's class videos and learning new skills like dehydrating food, canning, gardening, solar cooking, cooking with food storage(recipes), water filtration and storage, making bread, etc.; field trips to Bishop's storehouse for canning; assigning and reporting food storage research topics and best priced items; canning, assembling and sharing food storage recipes; and much more. If you are interested please leave a comment or sign up on Sunday.

Sister in need of a room for rent
Hannah Barlow - a sister from the Reseda Ward - needs a room to rent in Woodland Hills beginning May 1st.  She works long hours taking care of an elderly person in the area and would like to find a place to rent close to work.  Please let me know if you have a room to rent or are aware of any such opportunity.
