1 SERMON NOES Storm Warning Matthew 7:24-27, NKJV 2117 Collingwood Avenue Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Rev. Robert W. edder, Senior Pastor Becoming A Church of Purpose UBC HEALH & WELLNESS MINISRY ip of he Week UBC HEALH & WELLNESS MINISRY he old saying goes: "Leaves of three, let them be." Poison ivy, oak, and sumac are three plants that carry the same poison urushiol, a colorless, odorless oil that causes an itchy, irritating rash. he rash is very itchy and uncomfortable, but it is not contagious. ouching the skin of an affected individual will not cause you to get the rash as long as the oil has been washed off. After contact with poison ivy, oak, or sumac, immediately wash the exposed areas thoroughly with soap and water. Initially, hosing off outside or showering is preferred over a bath to minimize contact of the oil with other parts of the body. It is very important to wash all clothes and shoes immediately after exposure because the oils can remain on them and cause reinfection. Avoid areas where you know the plants live. Wear long sleeves and long pants if exploring wooded areas where you might find one of the plants. Show your children pictures of the plants so they learn what they look like. Let your children know that they should avoid touching the plants. Don t burn the plants urushiol can be released in the air and can cause breathing problems in addition to skin reactions.
