To know the history, purpose, and destiny of the Relief Society
Is preparing a 72-hour kit a woman’s job, or a man’s? It seems that most websites, on survival, are offered by men, but mostly I see women actually putting them together. Hmmm, just an interesting observation. Everyone and their uncle, grandmother, boss, and cousin will have an opinion on what to put in a […]
While my mind is on preparedness these days, I thought I would share a couple of random thoughts about how to gather a usable food storage. The way to store food storage, and use it, is as unique as the individual doing it, which is a good thing, but sometimes it helps to see […]
Sister Linda K. Burton spoke, at the General Women’s Meeting, on being spiritually prepared to receive temple blessings. Mentioning the story of the Nephites and how they were “prepared…in a manner which never had been known” (Alma 49:8), what does that mean for us? Have we been properly prepared to enter the temple, or […]
The following vision was seen in 1884 and recorded in The Young Woman’s Journal in the April 1890 edition. Visions are very personal, but they usually have a definite message, which can help others who may hear and listen. This vision was related by a sister living in Logan, Cache County, Utah: I dreamed I […]
Our Guest Post today is from Michaela Stephens. Her blog can be found here. I have a confession to make: I am not a very good cook. I could tell some pretty good stories about some times I’ve tried to cook and made an epic failure. There’s the salmon soup that was so bad our neighbor’s cats […]
A while back I stocked my shelves with at least twenty boxes of cereal. They were on sale and I was going to add them to my storage. Unfortunately, I still have snack-fiends at home and my supply dwindled almost immediately. I think there is something to learning how to use wheat, oats, rice, beans, […]
Is anyone worried about the economy? Have you felt a pinch yet? How prepared are you for what’s to come? We’ve been told for years what to do to prepare. We’ve done a little here and there, but now is the time to really look at what we’ve learned. There are several websites and blogs […]
Brigham Young asked Emmeline Wells to organize a wheat storage program. Apparently, it wasn’t easy to get the women out to glean the fields. The women were heard to say, “I will rather give a bushel of wheat than go out to glean.” It was such a problem that women, who refused to do their […]
If there is no eating in heaven, I’m not going! On the other hand, I bet heaven has the freshest gardens and the most sumptuous spreads of pot luck foods EVER. Just look at all the food at any given Mormon function: “Please bless the refreshments that they will nourish and strengthen our bodies.” Most […]
Christmas is a time of joy and happiness. Yet sometimes realities of our situation press upon us and we find little joy or happiness. Times have gotten real hard real fast for a lot of people this Christmas. But for many, every day of the year can be hard, so when Christmas rolls around, there’s […]
