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 20

Lesson 20:
Presented by Debbie Kent


No matter how ferocious the storm is, there's always light on the other side.
He Comes Again… Are You Ready?

FOUR LEVELS OF PREPAREDNESS
Because our “Ark” is not just built of food and water, but rather all areas; I have broken it down into four levels. All levels cover things we learned from Noah. There is also list a few extra categories. These are: Documents, Babies and Pets and Transportation. They are pretty self-explanatory and should be considered for Level One and then added to if you feel it is needed. These are guidelines only. Please use prayer and the promptings of the Spirit to further guide you as to what your family needs and when.
Also, “organize every needful thing”. You may need to pick up and leave quickly. Having supplies marked in Rubbermaid types of containers could prove invaluable.

Level One: 90 days food/ two weeks of water, “shelter in place” meaning in your own home
(earthquake/storm/flu) or evacuation center (fire), but with no power.

Level Two: A very sparse year supply and more water, living at home or not.

Level Three: Adds a bit more comfort and ease in food and supplies.

Level Four: adds more food/comfort and puts you in a position to “be a giver”.

We have found in building our Ark we have had promptings to store things that are either not on traditional lists or have felt the need to store MORE than is logically necessary. Those of you who have completed your traditional year supply will be more prone to these promptings as you are moving out of the area of caring for just your family and are better in a position to store things wherein you can help others. When you feel prompted to store a LOT more food, or medical supplies or winter clothing. DO IT, someone’s life will depend on it.
