Subject: widow's convernant with God
From Mrs. Clara Fofana
Dear in Christ ,
My name is Mrs. Clara Fofana from Cote d'Ivoire. I am married to Engr. Patrick
Fofana who worked with Exxon Mobil Corporation in Senegal for nine years
before he died in the year 2003. We were married for nineteen years with
two children and one of my child died after a brief illness that lasted for
only four days May his soul through the mercy of God rest in perfect peace
Amen. Before his death, we were both born again Christian.
Since my husband death, I decided not to remarry or get any other child outside
my matrimonial home which the Bible is against.When my late husband was alive
he left the sum of $7.5 Million (seven million five hundred thousand U.S.Dollars)
in fixed deposite with one of the Finance and security firm Europe. Presently,
this money is still in the finance firm.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Eight months
due to cancer of breast. The one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness
which paralysed some part of my body. Having known my condition I decided
to donate this fund to a church that will utilize this money the way I am
going to instruct herein. I want a church that will
use this fund for orphanages, widows, propagating the word of God and to
endeavor that the house of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand
that ?Blessed is the hand that giveth.
I took this decision because of my only child that will inherit 25% from
this money and help to secure a good education & accomodation and also for
the sake of God i will like you take him as your child and been a guidiance
to him where by my husband relatives are not Christians and I don?t want
my husband?s efforts to be used by unbelievers. I don?t want
a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way. This is why
I am taking this decision.
I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am
going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that ?the lord
will fight my case and I shall hold my peace?. I don?t need any telephone
communication in this regard because of my health condition. With God all
things are possible. My only child is helping me now in the
hospital where I receive treatment as adviced by my medical Doctor.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the finance
firm and all regarding the made deposit. I will also issue you an authority
letter that will prove you as the present beneficiary of my funds. I want
you and your family to always pray for me and my son because the lord is
my shephard. My happiness is that I lived a life of a
worthy Christian. Whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in
spirit and truth.
Please always be prayerful all through your life Any delay in your reply
will give me room in sourcing another church/Individual for this same purpose.Please
assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein.
Hoping to receive your reply.
Remain blessed in the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs. Clara Fofana
