Family Preparation: Give every family member specific safety tasks to do in an emergency. For example, designate one person to be in charge of turning off electricity, one to collect the emergency container, one to take charge of any pets, etc.

Spiritual Preparation: In the closing session of the Spring 2007 General Conference, President Gordon B. Hinckley said, "We hope that you will use the May edition of the Church magazines as a text for your family home evenings, to review that which has been spoken in this conference."

This counsel can be followed today by referencing the May 2011 Ensign.

For additional help in following this counsel, see the General Conference and Family Home Evening pages at http://www.lds.org/.

Food For Thought

Refer to Week 10 for some great soup ideas and information on some dry soup mixes. Also on that week we mentioned that a good soup could be made out of dry pack cannery items such as refried beans, carrots and onions. You can also use the cannery's potato flakes for the base of a good homemade soup (carrots and onions would be good in this also) and the oatmeal makes a great thickener for a rich, hearty soup or stew.
