The Ark Network

Much has happened in the past few years.  And anything can happen moving forwards.  Because of this we are building a network of individuals in Cincinnati called The Ark Network with the goal of ensuring that no matter what the future brings, everyone connected to this network will have access to all basic necessities:  Food, water, first aid, communication, electricity, transportation, self-defense et cetera.

In order to be effective within crisis situations, this network must be kept as simple as possible.  It consists of three components:  1. Individuals, 2. A method of Communication between those individuals, and 3. A currency.

Each individual within the network contributes either a product, a resource or a skill. 

Because we do not know what storms are coming we must prepare for every scenario.  To that end we identify different levels of scenario, from mild to worst case, and for each level we have a designated method of communication and a designated currency.

How It Works

1. First become a member of The Order of Christ.  To do this you simply need to be a Christian man.  Join by clicking sign-up at the top of the page.
2. After joining and getting your profile go to the top of the page, hover over "New Members Group" and click on "The First 100 - Group".  Join the group and post on the wall that you want to join The Ark Network.
   You can then communicate with the other members of The Order and of The Ark Network.
3. You will pick a product, resource or skill that you will contribute to the network.  Growing potatoes, providing eggs, or maybe you are a carpenter, a mechanic or a doctor.
4. All of the members will be listed on The Ark section of this website along with their contributing product, resource or skill.  (Not full names)
5. The Ark section will also list out the different methods of communication and different forms of currency depending on the scenario.
6. We then work together to involve more and more people with more products, resources and skills.  The more people we can involve, the more robust the network.

After doing these things, in the event of a crisis, everyone connected to the network will have a way to communicate with and trade with many individuals offering many different products, skills and resources.  We will have accomplished our goal ensuring that no matter what happens in the world, those connected to the network will have access to all basic necessities.
