How are things going with your" FOOD STORAGE CHALLENGE"? A challenge given to our ward members that wanted to test their food storage?
We were told by our Relief Society Pres. that during the month of October, to prepare meals for one week or two with food we had stored and to keep a journal on how our challenge went. For some they're meeting this challenge with flying colors, for others myself included it's a eye opener. But we can do almost anything, as long as we approach it one step at a time. Trying our best and learning how we can do better. As the Lord Himself declared, "And out of small things proceedeth that which is great" (D&C 64:33-34).
A quote from Crystal Godfrey writer of I can’t believe It’s Food Storage is “If you haven’t started your food storage or don’t know how to use what you do have, you’re not alone. Many of those who do have food storage don’t reap the full benefits of a three-month supply and a one-year supply, which modern prophets counsel us to have. Generally speaking, this failure is not due to lack of faith or motivation, but to the fact that people don’t know how to use food storage in everyday recipes”.
I mention earlier that my “Food Storage Challenge” has been an eye opener! We decided that everyday recipes, is where we need to start. Resources of information are unlimited, and I appreciate the help received from all of you.
