Welcome!

These monthly newsletters (from January 2011 to present) are to help us all be more prepared. They are written for the Hurricane Utah Stake (Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints,) but everyone is welcome to make copies. Many other groups and individuals are using them. (Note: Garden tips are for Southern Utah. You may need to adjust to fit your climate.)

April 2019 Back to Basics Newsletter

The month of April brings many things. Of course, we know that April showers bring May flowers! But there are many opportunities and traditions that come with this wonderful month.  April is a great time to check fire alarms, rotate 72 hour kits, and refresh water storage. April is a month we can finish planting just about everything in the garden.  April is a month we can work in the yard and garden without getting too hot! April is the month of General Conference for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, which makes it a great time for individuals and families to get personal inspiration as we listen to the wonderful messages prepared for us. April is the perfect month! May each of us find the thing that we need to accomplish in April, and let the efforts we make “blossom” with “May flowers” in the form of preparedness, peace, and happiness! If we are prepared we shall not fear!
