Emergency Preparedness Tip – Strengthen the Family … While there is Time
My heart sank as I read the news today about the plight of a homeschooling family in California. They were homeschooling because they did not want their children being taught immoral lifestyles in a public school setting. But because of political activism, their children can no longer be taught through homeschooling methods. Why? Because they are teaching children religious beliefs. In other words, their freedom has been impinged upon. The state of California has determined that they cannot teach their children about traditional marriage nor can the parents teach against homosexuality. The reach of this state is chilling as it continues to rewrite societal standards.

Elder Holland was quoting Joseph Smith, prophet of the restoration, when he said:
Caring for Those in Need
As Mormons, or members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints), we believe in Jesus Christ. As such we want to be His hands and His feet by serving others.
Helping Others in Adversity
As members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the Mormons), we believe in reaching out to others in adversity. It is what we stand for, because we believe Christ in His admonishments to serve and love others as He did. And we join in joy with all those throughout the world who live in the same way, regardless of whether they are of our same faith or not.
Preparedness – It’s a Community Effort
Being prepared is far more global than one might expect. Not only does wise preparedness cover such topics as financial preparedness, physical preparedness (i.e. dental exams, health exams), and food storage, but preparedness also addresses community preparedness.
The Lord Had Blessed Me In My Honesty
