Subject: Donation to charity
Dearest in the Lord,
Greetings in the name of our lord Jesus Christ.
I am married to Dr.Harry Annan who worked with in Gold Mining COMPANY
ACCRA-GHANA for nine years before he died in the year 2002.We were 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 against. When my late husband was alive he deposited the
sum of Eight Million Six hundred thousand United States Currency with a
finance/security company in Madrid Spain. Presently, this money is still
with the Security Company in Spain but the security company has threatened
to return the consignment to their headquarters in Dubai U.A.E in two weeks
after I die which I do not want.
Recently, my doctor told me that I would not last for the next Three months
due to cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my stroke sickness.
Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to church or better
still a Christian individual that will utilize this money the way I am
goingto instruct here in. I am looking for person that is God fearing that
will use this fund-to help the Asian Tsunami victims, fund church,
orphanages and widows propagating the word of God and to ensure that the
house of God is maintained. The Bible made us to understand that blessed is
the hand that grivet. 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.
I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly
manner.Hence the reasons for taking this bold decision. I am not afraid of
death hence I pray to go to heaven. Knowing 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 the presence of my husband's relatives around me
always. I don't want them to know about this development.
So you could reach me at my personal mailbox (mercy_annan2004@hotmail.com).
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 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. However whom 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 herein.
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Yours in Christ
Mrs. Mercy Annan
