Subject: DONATION FOR THE LORD
DONATION FOR THE LORD
From: Mrs. Mary Udeh
My Beloved,
PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USE IT FOR THE CHILDREN OF GOD.I am the above
name person from Sierra-Leone. I am married to Dr Theophilus Udeh who
worked with Sierra Leonian Embassy in South Africa for nine years
before he died in the year 2001. We were married for eleven years
without a child. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only
four days. Before his death we were both born again Christians and we
lived happilly. Since his death, I decided not to re-marry or get a
child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is really against.
When my late husband was alive he secured $15Million (Fifteen Million
U.S. Dollars) with financial institution here in Cote D'Ivoire.
Presently, this money is still with the financial institution.
Recently, my Doctor told me that from all the test conducted on my
health, I am not going to last long, expecially, due to my cancer and
stroke. But what disturbs me most now is stroke.
Having known my condition, I decided to donate this fund to churches
or Christian individual that will utilize this money the way I am
going to instruct. I want a church or individual that will use this
money to fund churches, Orphanages and Widows. Also, the propagation
of the work of God, building and maintaining the house of God through
this money, is very important.
The Bible made us to understand that Blessed is the hand that giveth.
I took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit
this money and my husband relatives are not Christians. I don?t want
my husband's hard earned money to be misused by unbelievers, for
their own selfish interest and in an ungodly manner. I am not afraid
of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be
in the bossom 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, and because of the presence of my husband's relatives around
me sometimes. I don't want them to know about this development, but I
know that With God all things are possible.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the
Financial institution in Ivory coast. I will also give you all
information regarding the deposit of this money. I will also issue
you a letter of authority that will empower you as the original-
beneficiary of this fund. I want you and your church to always pray
for me because God work in misterious ways. My happiness is that I
lived a life of a worthy Christian. Who ever 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 for a church or
christian individual for this same purpose. Please assure me that you
will act accordingly as I stated herein.
Hoping to hear from you soon.
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs Mary Udeh.
