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 2022 Back to Basics Newsletter



Click here for a link to the April 2022 Back to Basics Newsletter.

We have long heard that “April showers bring May flowers.” A few stormy days bring about great beauty! We roll up our sleeves and plant seeds, water and weed, and add sunshine from on high, and before we know it our homes are surrounded by colorful blooms. So it is with preparedness. It takes some effort and planning; some “rolling up of sleeves,” to establish and maintain a solid family preparedness program. But that extra food on the shelf, water in a jug, and garden in the yard, all help bring about great satisfaction and personal peace. It is not too late to plant flowers to enjoy this summer! And it is never too late to start, add to, and strengthen your family preparedness. Just like you have your own favorite flowers - only you know the needs of your family. Storms will continue to roll around. It is our job to be sure our family is ready to weather the storms with the preparedness we have established. Our family’s peace and satisfaction will come from the “flowers” we plant today.
