RE: PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USE IT FOR THE CHILDREN OF
GOD.
I am the above named person from Kuwait. I am
married to Dr. Harry Jones who
worked with Kuwait embassy in Ivory Coast for nine
years, before he died in the year 2000.We were both
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. Since his death I decided not to
re-marry or get a child outside my matrimonial home
which the Bible is all against. When my late husband
was alive he deposited the sum of $18.6Million
(Eighteen Million six hundred thousand U.S.Dollars)
with a finance/security company in Europe.
Presently, this money is still with the Security
Company in Europe for safe keeping. Recently, my
Doctor told me that I would not last for the next
three months due to my cancer problem.
Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness.
Having known my condition of health I have decided
to donate this fund to churches, orphanage or a
better Christian individual that will utilize this
money the way I am going to instruct here in. I want
an individual that will use these fund to fund
churches, orphanages and widows propagating the word
of God and to ensure that the house of God is
maintained. The Bible made us to nderstand 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 and I don't want my husband's hard earned
money to be misused by unbelievers. As I don’t want
a situation whereby this money will be used in an
ungodly manner.
Hence the reason for taking this bold 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 and also due of the presence of my husband's
relatives around me always. I don't want them to
know about this development. With God all things are
possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall
give you the contact of the Finance/ Security
Company in Europe. I will also issue you a letter of
authority that will prove you as the original-
beneficiary of this said fund. I want you and the
church to always pray for me because the lord is my
shepherd.
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
for a church or Christian individual for this same
purpose.
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as
I stated here in.Also, i'd prefer you reply me through
my pivate email address which is stated at the top.
Hoping to hearing from you.
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs. Mary Jones
