From Mrs Yassine Toure Al-Shalahi
Abidjan, Cote D'Ivoire.
Dearest in Lord,
My name is Mrs. Yassine Toure Al-Shalahi a nationality of Kuwait. I am
married to late. Dr. George Malik Al-Shalahi who worked with Kuwait embassy
here in Cote D'Ivoire for Twelve years before he died October in the year
2005. We were married for twenty years with a child. My husband died after a
brief illness that lasted for just four days, fortunately we were both born
again Christians when he was alive before his death. When my husband was
alive we deposited the sum of USD$9.7 Million (Nine Million seven hundred
thousand U.S. Dollars) with one of the leading bank here in Cote d'Ivoire,
presently this money is still with the bank.
I am worried because recently my doctor informed me that I may not last for
the next three months due to my cancer Sickness, secondly what disturbs my
mind again is the stroke that I had after my husband death due to the shock
of his death and having known my condition, I decided to donate this money
(USD$9.7 Million) to church or a good Christian individual who will utilize
this money the way I am going to instruct. I want a honest individual or
church in your country that will use this fund to donate as charity gift to
churches, orphanages, research centres and widows propagating the word of
the Lord and to ensure that the house of God is maintained, because the
Bible made us to understand that blessed is the hand that giveth. I took
this decision even though that I have a child that will inherit this money
but my son can not carry out this work only him alone that is why I decide
to use some part of the money to work for God, and the rest will be for our
only son Samuel to have a better live in future.
My son Samuel is just 19 year old now and been grown up here in Africa, he
is not experienced and my husband’s relatives are not Christians and I don’t
want this money to be misused by unbelievers, I don’t want a situation where
this money will be used in an ungodly manner and this is the reason why I
take this bold decision of contacting you. I am not afraid of death hence I
know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says
that the lord will fight for my case and I shall hold my peace. I do not
want your telephone communication regarding this issue because of my health
condition and to avoid the presence of my family relatives around me always,
I don't want any of my husband's family relatives to receive this money or
know about it, they are ungodly people and no trust with them. All my
believe is with God and all things are possible.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the
Finance/bank here and I will also apply to the bank with authorization in
your name to empower you as the new beneficiary of this money. Please I want
you and the church to always pray for me because only the lord is my
shepherd and 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 make me to continue searching for a church or Christian
individual for this same purpose until I get a reliable person. Please
assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated here. Expecting to hear
from you soonest. Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Your sincerely,
Mrs.Yassine Toure Al-Shalahi.
