The revelation to store food may be as essential to our temporal salvation today as boarding the ark was to the people in the days of Noah.~~ President Ezra Taft Benson

Building your Ark * Lesson 10: Noah Ate and Cleaned.

Lesson 10: Noah Ate 

Presented by Debbie Kent

Noah, his family ate the food they stored, the question is was it cooked or raw?


“One thing to consider is how you are going to cook your food. We quickly found that eating cold food out of a can was quite unappetizing, even if you are hungry. We were under a fire ban, so building a fire wasn’t an option. I highly recommend learning ways to cook without electricity and storing needed supplies”. Jessica J. (yourfamilyark.com)

and Cleaned.

The biggest cause of death from the devastating Indian Ocean tsunami in 2004 that initially killed over 230,000 occurred AFTER the wave hit. These deaths were caused by the lack of clean water and poor sanitation practices in the weeks and months following the event, which led to disease and death. During times of emergency it is critical that sanitation be strictly observed in the cleaning of clothing, bedding materials, and all kitchen and food preparation utensils. Typhoid fever, amoebic dysentery, diarrhea, infectious hepatitis, salmonella and Guardia are diseases that spread rapidly in times of emergency and threaten all, yet are these all diseases that can easily be controlled by simply following the rules of good sanitation.
