Noah's Ark Program --May

It's a new month and that means it's time for some new preparedness goals! How are you doing on your goals so far? Feeling overwhelmed? Or perhaps you're thinking this is a cake walk! Either way, let us know if you ever feel like you're needing help. If this is the first you've heard of the Noah's Ark Program, click HERE to read about the program. And then click HERE if you want to catch up on what our goals were for April as well. And now, on to May!

NOAH'S ARK PROGRAM - MAY

"The revelation to produce and store food may be as essential to our temporal welfare today as boarding the ark was to the people in the days of Noah."   -President Ezra Taft Benson

Spiritual Goal- Share a Book of Mormon with a non-member.

Provident Living Goal- Make a goal and a plan to exercise regularly.

Storage Goal-

-2 rolls toilet paper per person
-2 packages flavored gelatin per person
-Garden seeds
-1 small bottle Olive Oil (for consecrating)
