LETTER FROM: Mrs.EDEN C. BRITON
In lordship I am the above named person from Philipines but now undergoing
medical treatment. I was married to Dr.Roberts BRITON who worked with
the spainish embassy.We were both married for eleven years without children.
He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his
death we were
both Christians and since his death I decided not to re-marry. When my late
husband was alive he deposited the sum of USD7, 600,000.00 (seven Million
six Hundred Thousand dollars with a reliable Finance Company).
I will send you details as soon as you indicate your interest.Recently,my
Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Six months due to my
cancer illness. Having known my condition and believing the doctor I
have decided to donate this fund to avoid total loss to church, Less
privilege,or better still a Christian individual that will utilize this
money the way ,I am going to instruct herein.I want interested church or
individual that will receive and use this money to help churches,
orphanages, widows and propagating the Gospel
and to ensure that the house of God is maintained. Please do not fail to
spread the funds across the globe as soon as you receive the money.
The Bible made us to understand that it is more blessed to give than to
receive. I took this decision because I don't have any child that will
inherit this money and my husband relatives are fighting over the properties
and I don't want my husband's hard earned money to be
misused by their greedy attitude. I don't want a situation where this money
will be used in an UNGODLY manner, hence the reason for taking this bold
decision. I am not afraid of death since I am a good Christian. 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 because 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
information of the Finance Company and other details that will enable
you claim the funds. I will also issue you a letter of authority/Power of
Attorney that will make you the beneficiary of this fund. I want you 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. I sent you this mail under severe pains. Any delay in
your reply will be detrimental. Please assure me that you will act
accordingly.
Hoping to hear from you immediately.
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Remain blessed
Mrs.EDEN C. BRITON
