   Are you ready                    ? As                    another record-breaking winter storm unfolded, it is a perfect                    time to consider your level of disaster readiness.  We                    all share the responsibility to be ready for any type of                    disaster that could affect us, our families, and our                    communities. The steps are quick and easy, and being ready can                    provide you with peace of mind. Go to www.ldr.org/ready, and get yourself and your                    family ready today!
 It's also time to start                    planning for spring floods. Record snows this winter combined                    with an unusually wet autumn have forecasters calling for a                    serious threat of flooding this spring. If you live in a                    flood-prone area, you might be eligible for flood insurance                    through the National Flood Insurance Program. These policies                    take 30 days from the date of purchase to take effect, which                    means that if you live in an area that could potentially                    flood, you should apply today. For more information, visit www.floodsmart.gov.
 
 Most                    importantly, remember in your prayers all those who will be                    exposed to the snow, ice, wind, and cold in the coming days,                    especially those who are homeless and seeking shelter, and the                    first responders who will be serving anyone in                    need.
