Saturday June 19th we are having a preparedness class at the church at 10 am. The brethren are welcome to join us....we would love to have them there. We will be talking about food storage and canning, 72 hour kits, and giving tips on how to use your wheat storage. We will have handouts and recipes for you to take home. We encourage you to be prepared for the unexpected and when we get together to discuss these topics, everyone benefits from each other. Come with your questions and your ideas to share. For those of you who ordered a basic 72 hour kit, we will have them ready for you. If you did not purchase one, and want to make your own, we will have a list of things you can put in one. We hope to see you there!

Pillowcase Class

Tomorrow night (Tuesday June 8) we will be making pillowcases at the church. Bring 3/4 of a yard of your main fabric and 10 inches of contrasting color for the edge. Also, bring a sewing machine if you have one. See you at 6:30 pm. (For those who don't know, our activity night has changed to Tuesdays for awhile.) Also, if you are still working on an apron, you are welcome to bring that to work on.

Upcoming Class

On Saturday June 19th we will be having a class on food storage and emergency preparedness. We want to make sure that everyone has a 72-hour kit. We are putting together a very basic 72-hour kit for those who would like to purchase them. The kits will be $25.00 and they will include survival items and food for 3 days (see the items listed below.) We will also be handing out lists of what you should put in a kit if you'd prefer to put together one on your own. We need to collect the money by Sunday June 13th. Please let us know if you want one and give your money to Laura Hawkins or Heather Stites. We will be sending around a sign-up at church tomorrow. Also, we would like to have your favorite recipe using wheat. Please email it back to us or bring it to church. We will be giving out ideas on how to use your wheat....but we'd like to have as many ideas as possible, so please send your favorites to us. Also, the men are welcome to attend if they would like to.
