Subject: Important Winter Safety Tips for Our Jordan River Church Family

Dear Jordan River Church Family,

Greetings from the desk of Pastor Tyler.

As dangerous, icy, and cold conditions approach, please prepare by stocking up on essential food and water, and fully charging your devices. Prioritize safety by staying off the roads, checking on elderly neighbors, and using safe, non-flammable heat sources properly. To prevent pipes from freezing, let your faucets drip as needed.

Key Safety Tips for Memphis Church Members:
- Protect the "4 P's": People, Pets, Pipes, and Plants.
- Stay Informed & Connected: Keep phones charged; if travel is necessary, drive slowly with lights on.
- Safety at Home: Use space heaters safely—keep them away from flammable items and never leave unattended.
- Power Outages: Keep doors closed to unused rooms.
- Emergency Supplies: Stock up on food and water.
- Community Care: Check on elderly neighbors or those living alone.

Emergency Contacts:
- Emergencies: Call 911
- Non-Emergencies: Call 311

Preparation Checklist:
- Charge phones and power banks
- Stock up on food and water
- Check on neighbors
- Cover exposed pipes
- Use fireplaces safely
- Have extra blankets on hand

Stay safe and blessed,

M. L. Tyler
Pastor, Jordan River Church

Dear Friends,

Greetings from the desk of Pastor Tyler. As we all know, the weather in Memphis has turned cold, and conditions are expected to worsen.

I wanted to share some crucial Winter Weather Safe Travel Tips from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to help keep you safe this season:

Before heading out, always check weather conditions and sign up for emergency alerts. Dress warmly with durable shoes and a weatherproof coat. Prepare an emergency kit with jumper cables, tire-puncture kits, maps, blankets, bottled water, and non-perishable snacks.

For drivers: Keep a full gas tank to prevent freezing, check oil and antifreeze levels, and ensure your heater, defroster, and exhaust system work properly. Use winter tires with good tread, and have chains or studs ready if required. Remove all snow and ice from your vehicle and clear your tailpipe before starting.

For cyclists: Perform an A-B-C safety check (air pressure, brakes, chain), fix any issues before riding, equip your bike with front and rear lights plus reflectors, and wear bright clothing to stay visible.

On the road, be aware of slippery conditions, slow down, and maintain safe distancing. Watch out for icy surfaces and overhangs.

Stay safe and warm,

M. L. Tyler
Pastor
