๐Local Granbury Winter Emergency Preparedness and Support๐
*PLEASE BE PREPARED BEFORE SUNDOWN ON FRIDAY 1/23/26*
We are so grateful, and baffled, that Spring showed up today so everyone could easily get out and get prepared for a possible ice storm this weekend. God has blessed us with TODAY to make sure we are safe, warm, and prepared by sundown Friday sunset.
The 2021 freeze left some DFW friends without power for 2-5 days depending upon where they were in the grid. Because we live in the glorious Texas climate with winter emergencies being rare, we forget that some vital necessities at this time are:
Batteries, generators, cell phone battery packs, firewood, full propane tanks, food supply that doesn't require a microwave or electric cooktop, clean water in case pipes freeze, candles, lighters, etc.
If you do not have firewood for this weekend, please come to the Open Hearts labyrinth today with strong arms or a wagon and borrow some wood from our emergency preparedness stack. It is a 30 yard walk from the woodstack back to the parking lot.
If you do not have funds for food supplies, private message me and I'll meet you here with a sack of canned goods to get you through Saturday and Sunday.
If you or someone you know does not have shelter for the weekend please contact me directly TODAY so that by Friday sundown, we make sure everyone is safely sheltered.
The Open Hearts public food pantry is temporarily located at First Discoveries Montessori while our new building is under construction, and I am unsure at this moment how full it is. If you have an overabundance, please drop off supplies there while you're out today and be a part of commUnity solution. Thank you ๐
Blessings to All Beings, without exception ๐น
