Be a good boy scout
Although soul-preparation is the most important preparation you can do–wearing sacramentals, being in the state of grace–we cannot forget the body either. With more terrorism and wars, a monetary crash, earthquakes and other disasters threatening, it’s only good common sense to prepare yourself and your loved ones for these latter-day events predicted by Our Lady and Our Lord. Veronica of the Cross had stated that there should be at least two weeks supply per person. The following has been adapted from the emergency preparedness manual of the American Red Cross.

APOCALYPSE NOW
“In justice and for penance, there will be visited upon your earth great trials: droughts, famine, rotting crops, hurricanes, floods, all manner of earth tremors and disturbances of nature, increasing in volume, spreading throughout your world. There will be eruptions and manifestations that shall bring terror to the hearts of many, in places that have never seen nor heard of such volume of sound and fierce eruptions of the earth.”
St. Michael, August 21, 1976

GET ON IT
“O My children, how many will try to go back and restore their homes when it is too late! Keep blessed candles, water, blankets, food within your homes.”
Our Lady, June 12, 1976

NO REGRETS
“How well you listened to Us when We told you to place on your shelves cans of food, jars of water, blankets. You found it very cold, My child, without heat and without light, and without any form of recreation other than to pray....*
      “Retain your crucifix on your doors. And keep your supply of earthly goods, though they are needed for your human body: the canned food, the candles, the water, and the blankets. A sudden cold shall come upon mankind, and many shall die from the cold.”
Jesus, October 5, 1985

*Our Lord is referring to Hurricane Gloria that hammered the Northeast on September 27, 1985, including Long Island where Veronica lived. Gloria killed 11 people and is the 13th costliest hurricane in U.S. history with damage totaling nearly a billion.

ALERT LOVED ONES
“My children, not only with the canned foods will you store just food, but you must also make known to your families and your friends that they had best keep blankets and water in tight containers; for there will be on the onset of the Chastisement, there will be nothing you can buy due to contamination....
      “My child, I wish that you boil the water in your home. I will tell you now, My children, if you are receiving waters for your use in your homes, it must be boiled, because the contamination of chemicals and waste matter–nuclear waste matter–is driving down into the soils of the nation and polluting these waters, which will bring imminent death to many.”
Our Lady, July 1, 1985

BE READY
“So many of you will not be ready! Keep your waters clean in your bottles.”
Our Lady, June 18, 1988

OBEY COUNSEL
“Your end can come by day. It will come upon you quickly, and how many shall be prepared? Do you have your candles? Do you have your water, your canned food, and your blankets? It will become an extremely cold day with the start of the Tribulation, and you will welcome having these on hand, My children. Do not take this lightly, but abide by Our direction and you shall not be caught short of provisions.”
Jesus, November 1, 1985
