Subject: GOOD DAY
*Dear,
I am Mrs. Blessing Williams, from Kuwait . I am married to late Mr. Edward
Williams, who worked with Kuwait Embassy in Ghana for Twenty-Five years
before he died in the year 2004, after a brief illness.
We were married for Eighteen years without any issue. Before the untimely
death of my husband, we were both truly born again Christians. Since after
his death I decided not to remarry again, since am almost getting old to
have children and also very sick. When my late husband was alive we
deposited the sum of (US$6.5 M) (Six Million, Five Hundred Thousand United
States Dollars) in a General Trust Account with a prime bank in Ghana .
Presently, this money is still with the bank.
Recently, my cancer illness have become so bad that I don't really know how
long more I will have to live, following my health records, my Doctor had
told me that I may not last till the next six months.
The worse part of it is that my cancer has been coupled with fatal stroke
which has resulted to my inability to move around on my own. Having known my
condition I decided to donate this fund to a Christian, or Christian
organization (Church) that will utilize this money the way I am going to
instruct herein, according to my desire and that of my late husband before
his death.
Even if am no longer there to see this go on, I need you to promise me that
you will surely, nor matter the Secom stance carry this out as I have stated
below.
I want this fund to be used in Christian Activities like, Orphanages,
Christian schools, and Churches, for propagating the word of God and to
endeavor that the house of God is maintained, to the best that you can. The
Bible made us to understand that "The gift of a man makes a way for him. I
took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this,
and I don't want the efforts of me and my late husband to be wasted by
unbelievers.
This is why I have taken 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". With God all things are possible.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall make you contact the bank in Ghana.
I will also issue you the documents that will prove you the present
beneficiary of this fund.
I want you and the Church to always pray for me because the lord is my
shepherd. My happiness is that I lived the 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.
Remain blessed in the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs. Blessing Williams *
