The Abundant Life

Our lives have been enriched by relationships and friendships; therefore, we are rich!

"And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. . . . But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?  So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God." Luke 12:15, 20-21

"The abundant life, of course, has little to do with the acquisition of material things, though there are many wonderful individuals who have been blessed materially and who use their wealth to help their fellowmen---and this is most commendable.  The abundant life noted in the scriptures is the spiritual sum that is arrived at by the multiplying of our service to others and by investing our talents in service to God and to man"  (The Teachings of Spencer W. Kimball, p. 352).

PERSONAS COMO ROY HOWARD SON DIFICIL DE ENCONTRAR, UN POCO COMPLICADO EN VOLVER A VERLO, PERO MUY, MUY FÀCIL DE RECORDARLO...... "LO QUEREMOS MUCHO Y LO EXTRAÑAMOS UN MUNDO"

De acuerdo, personas como él son únicas entre las creaciones de Dios. Nunca podremos encontrar otra igual. Es especial y con muchos talentos. Ha sido un placer poder contarme entre sus amigos en Ecuador. No sé cuándo volveré a verlo ni a saber más de él. Pero me siento agradecida con Dios por haberlo conocido y aprendido de todo lo que él es.



Thank you for your letters. I enjoy reading each and everyone of them. Everyone here will love it when you come home. We miss you here with us.
The letters you write tells so much. Of the people and of the love that you can share with them. My Dad was bald, I have brothers that are bald. I wonder if the rubbing on the head happens often. You and all those wonderful people will be in our prays and hearts.

Have a wonderful, good day!

LOVE YOU MUCH,
FRANK AND KATHY COOT

Dear Janeen and Roy,

Your very letter is why Marion and I love and respect you and your family.
Mend quickly, Hugs, and a safe return home. To quote my Dad--and you know this so well, not to mention the magical Carleen-- "God will provide."

I have been thinking about you lately, but wasn't sure what your current
e-mail address was.  I am sorry to hear about the health issues, but
glad that they are and will be taken care of.  It seems as if you just
left for your mission.  The time passes so fast!  

The Church has such need for older couples serving missions.  I know you
and Roy have made an impact that will be felt for generations on the
Saints in Ecuador.

Our big project goes live on Oct. 1.  I had hoped to work until December
31, 2012, but the job may end next June.  I have already gone to my
bishop and expressed my interest in serving a mission when I retire.  I
hope to serve in the immediate area because of Kim.  She has Multiple
Scerosis (MS), and although she is doing well, that could change
overnight.

Have a safe trip back and let me know how your eye is doing.

Bless you for serving the Lord the way you have.  Let us know your address when you become settled in your home. Both of you are in our prayers.  We love you two and are looking forward to seeing you again .
May you have a wonderful and safe flight home.
