# London Ukingdom.
SUBJECT: FAITH OF DONATION.
Beloved In Christ,
PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USE IT FOR GOD.

Calvary greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am Mrs Dora Juliet,
a widow to Late Dr. Sheik Collins I am 70years old, I am now a new
Christian convert, suffering from long time cancer of the breast.
From all indications, my condition is serious and according to my
doctor
it is quite obvious that I may not survive the sickness, although as a
Christian, I
believe God and I know that I will not die, I will leave to declare the
glory of God. My late husband and my only son was killed during the
agony
Crisis and I am presently Leaving alone. Our Lord Jesus Christ is my
comforter. My
late husband was very wealthy we have a lot of properties including
Shares
and houses. After the death of my husband, I made up my mind to travel
abroad
to leave the rest of my life and continue to do the work of God as a
missionary.
I called our lawyer and I instructed him to sell all my husbands
properties
and shares to enable me raise some money to continue my mission. The
lawyer
sold the Shares and some of the properties and I was able to raise the
sum
of ($12,000,000.00(Twelve Million US Dollars)The
fund
is in cash, for the safety of the fund, till am able to travel out,I deposited
it with a Security Company.
Presently. Now
that my sickness has gone to this stage, I am scared and I want the fund
to be used for the work of God all over the world. I have prayed and I
told
God to direct me to an honest Christian who will receive this fund and

utilize
it for things that will glorify the name of God. After my prayers I searched
the internet
and I saw your information's which impressed me to contact you,
Please if
you are interested in using this fund for the work of God i.e. charity
homes,
less privileged and the motherless baby home. Please reply so that I
can give
you the contact of the security company.

Hoping to hear from you soon.

Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.

Yours in Christ,

Mrs. Dora Juliet
