• 72 hr kits- Elder L. Tom Perry said "The principle of self-reliance is spiritual as well as temporal. It is not a doomsday program; it is something to be practiced each and every day of our lives. May we continue to hold fast to the eternal truths of self-reliance"  On May 20th there will be a Relief Society Meeting.  We will be making and getting items for our 72 hour kits, so bring your backpack and get ready to start adding items to your kits.  We will also have a speaker on Emergency Preparedness and demonstrations on other items you can make/get for your kits.  So come and get a start to your 72 hour kits.  If you haven't started a kit yet- we're offering starter kits.  These come from Be Prepared (click on the name to go to their website) and we will be picking them up to save on shipping.  There are 2 bottle kits available, the basic kit (about $12.00) and the deluxe kit (about $17.00), the deluxe kit is pictured below.
