This document provides information about emergency preparation for individuals and families. It recommends having a 3 month supply of regular food, longer term food storage, ways to prepare and cook food without power or gas, supplies of water and ways to treat water, lighting, communication devices, heat, medications, cash, sanitation supplies, and a first aid kit. It also recommends assembling a 72 hour emergency kit with clothes, important documents, hygiene supplies, medications, food, water, entertainment items, fuel, and camping gear in case of needing to evacuate. The most important thing to have in an emergency, according to a quote from Brigham Young, is to keep the spirit of the Lord and be humble and faithful.

What is the most important thing we need to have in an emergency? On February 23, 1847, Brigham Young was in Winter Quarters making plans for the pioneer vanguard group to reach the Salt Lake Valley. Brigham wrote about a dream in which the Prophet Joseph appeared to him. Brigham Young told Joseph about how much he missed his companionship, and asked Joseph why he could not come with him. Joseph told him he would have to wait. Brigham then asked if Joseph had a message for Saints. Joseph responded, "Tell the people to be humble and faithful and sure to keep the Spirit of the Lord and it will lead them right. Be careful and not turn away the still small voice; it will teach [you what] to do and where to go; Tell the brethren if they will follow the Spirit of the Lord they will go right."
A just man and perfect in his generations, one who walked with God, was the prophet Noah. Ordained to the priesthood at an early age, he became a preacher of righteousness and declared the gospel of Jesus Christ, teaching faith, repentance, baptism, and the reception of the Holy Ghost. He warned that failure to heed his message would bring floods upon those who heard his voice, and yet they hearkened not to his words.
Noah heeded Gods command to build an ark, that he and his family might be spared destruction. He followed Gods instructions to gather into the ark two of every living creature, that they also might be saved from the floodwaters.
Noah had the unwavering faith to follow Gods commandments. May we ever do likewise. May we remember that the wisdom of God ofttimes appears as foolishness to men; but the greatest lesson we can learn in mortality is that when God speaks and we obey, we will always be right.
