From: "rose williams" <rosewilliams1955@msn.com>
Date: Sat, 22 Oct 2005 00:41:52 +0000
Subject: URGENT RESPONSE NEEDED
Dear Good Friend.
I greet you in the name of the Lord.
I am Mrs Rose John from Solomon Islands. I am married to Mr.John
williams who worked with our Embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he
died on the 15th August 2004. We were married for eleven years without a
child.
He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days.Ever before his
death we were both born again Christians and have sown into many ministries.
Since his death I decided not to remarry, but feeling quite lonely if not
the Lord who has been my partner and comforter.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of$8.5 Million with a
Bank in Cote D lvoire.
Presently this money is still in the custody of the Bank in Cote D lvoire.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next two years due
to cancer problem.
Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a
church,organization or good person that will utilize this money the way I am
going to instruct herein.
I want a church,organization or good person that willuse this funds to help
the orphans, widows and other people that needfinancial assistance.
Using part of this money to provide facilities for God,s work, taking the
gospel to greater height is my major reason of donating this funds out.
The Bible made us to understand that"Blessed is the hand that giveth".l took
this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money
and my husband relatives are not Christians and it had been their wish to
see my husband dead in order that they might inherit his wealth since we
have no son.
These people are therefore not worthy of this inheritance.
This is why I am taking this decision. Meanwhile I am not afraid of death
hence I know where I am going. It is only a sinner who's death is painful I
don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health
hence the presence of my husband's relatives around me always.
I don't want them to know about this development and lknow that With God all
things are possible.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Bank in
Cote d' lvoire. I will also issue a letter of authorization to the bank that
will prove you the present beneficiary of this money. I also want you to
always uplift me in prayer.
My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian.
Whoever that Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in truth and faith,
"serving him with all you have, knowing that naked we come and naked we must
go" Contact me on the the email address (williams-1@myway.com) and any delay
in your reply will give me room in sourcing another good person,
church,organization for this same purpose.
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I Stated here in. Hoping
to receive your response immedaitely.
Thanks and Remain blessed in the Lord.
Your Sister in Christ.
Mrs. Rose John.
