Hey Gang, suggested
reading for you. We are less than 40
days from the end of this Shemitah year.
If you are not up to speed on this you might what to go back and read
the four blogs on Shemitah that I wrote a month o so ago. It would also increase you knowledge base if
you also read the blogs on Jubilee and the Feast Days. I would suggest the patriarch and matriarch
of each family sit down and discuss this and take action. If you
have questions about what I am talking about you might want to call and we will
bring you up to speed. This is a very serious matter. If you do not have a patriarch or matriarch
to discuss this with we would bring you up to speed in what the religious gurus
and financial leaders in the world are saying and predicting.
Remember
use your heads how best to protect your family.
Have some extra staples in the pantry, some extra cash in case the banks
will not allow you to get yours from there, make a house payment ahead if you
can, and have extra meds on hand.
Research indicates that a
higher percentage of people are heeding this warning than ever before.

REPEAT FROM LAST
WEEK: How to Prepare for You and Your Family in the Event of a National,
Regional and/or Citywide Emergency
A
comprehensive plan on how to prepare for you and your family
The following is a comprehensive plan for how to prepare in the
event of national, regional or city-wide emergency leading to stores without
food, no electricity, no fuel for cars and disruption in all areas of life.
It’s important to note a couple of things. First, stores have only
a three- to four-day supply of food—and we know how fast the shelves can be
cleared in preparation for a major snowstorm or hurricane. Second, our society
is heavily reliant on computers that run every area of our lives. A major cyber
event could cripple and disrupt the U.S. economy.
Preparation
Through its Ready Campaign, the Federal Emergency Management
Agency educates and empowers Americans to take some simple steps to prepare for
and respond to potential emergencies, including natural disasters and terrorist
attacks. Ready asks individuals to do three key things:
1.
Get an emergency
supply kit.
2.
Make a family
emergency plan.
3.
Be informed about the
different types of emergencies that could occur and their appropriate
responses.
All Americans should have some basic supplies on hand in order to
survive for at least three days if an emergency occurs.
Following is a list of some basic items that every emergency
supply kit should include. However, it’s important that individuals review this
list and consider where they live and the unique needs of their family in order
to create an emergency supply kit that will meet these needs.
People should also consider having at least two emergency supply
kits—one full kit at home and smaller portable kits at their workplace and in
their vehicle.
Ready.gov has a variety of downloadable publications
that cover various topics about planning and preparation for disasters and
emergencies.
Storing food for future use was a part of life for early
Americans, but the growth of stores that offer fresh supplies up to 24 hours a
day caused most people to stop storing their own food. Many people are
reconsidering this choice as natural disasters, financial crises and political
unrest grow.
Emergency preparedness organizations such as the Red Cross
recommend storing two weeks’ worth of food, but many people prefer to prepare
supplies for six months.
Food and
water in an emergency
If an earthquake, hurricane, winter storm or other disaster
strikes your community, you might not have access to food, water and
electricity for days or even weeks. By taking some time now to store emergency
food and water supplies, you can provide for your entire family.
Water
Water is an essential element to survival and a necessary item in
an emergency supplies kit. Following a disaster, clean drinking water may not
be available. Your regular water source could be cut off or compromised through
contamination. Prepare yourself by building a supply of water that will meet
your family’s needs during an emergency.
How much
water do I need?
You should store at least one gallon of water per person per day.
A normally active person needs at least one gallon of water daily just for
drinking. However, individual needs vary, depending on age, physical condition,
activity, diet and climate.
Suggested
emergency food supplies
Following a disaster, there may be power outages that could last
for several days. Stock canned foods, dry mixes and other staples that do not
require refrigeration, cooking, water or special preparation. Be sure to
include a manual can opener and eating utensils.
Managing
food without power
Recommended
supply list
Family
supply list
Water, food and clean air are important things to have if an
emergency happens. Each family or individual’s kit should be customized to meet
specific needs, such as medications and infant formula. It should also be
customized to include important family documents.
