Subject: Donation
Dear Beloved In The Lord,
My christian greetings to you belove in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ who make it possible for me to be in contact with you these day to his glory. The LORD who is the author and the finisher of our faith.
My name is Mrs Mary Williams from SOUTH AFRICA. I was married to Deacon Williams who passed on to death on 28th November 2003. Untill his death he served as an Deacon in the St.Micheal's archdeaconry in Ivory Coast for 30 years. We were married for 27 years without any child. His death occured after a brief illness that lasted for only two days. He was my whole life and everything I lived and cared for but that was how God wanted it. May his soul be in the hands of the LORD.
When my late husband was alive he saved the sum of US$2,500,000.00 in a Turst Finanace & Security Company in Abidjan, Cote D'Ivoire for establishment and development of charity organisation but death could not allow him to see the vision alive. I am in need of a honest hearted christian , church or individual that I will offer this funds for the work of God “ for the establisment of orphanage homes, food pantries, cloth bank for distributions for the poor “.
Just Some Few Months Ago, Doctors confirmed to me that I have a serious illness which is Stroke with my left side which does not allow me to move freely as my present health situation is in a very critical shape and I don't know what might happen to me in the next few days or weeks ahead. This is the reason why I want to take this bold decision. Having known about my present health condition I decided to make the donation of this funds to any servant of God, church(es) or individuals who can in real honesty will utilize this funds the way I stated above for the USAGE and who I will handle all the related legal documents covering the funds and to made the claim on mybehalf.
My Bible made me to understand that “Blessed the hand that giveth”.This decision was taken because I didn’t have any child that will inherit this funds and my husband relatives are not Christians and are greedy people. I wouldn't want our efforts to be used by unbelievers and greedy individuals for no profit. I do not want a situation where this funds will be in the hand of ungodly persons. This is why I am taking this decision.
As soon as I receive your reply I will give you the contact information of my late husband Lawyer in Abidjan who will help withine the time procedures, and the contacts of where the funds are in Abidjan Cote D'Ivoire. I need you with the whole of your congregation members to always pray for me because the lord will protect me . Dearly Beloved in Christ Please, i will want you to know any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another church or individual for this same purpose. Please kindly assure me that you will act accordingly as I have Stated herein. As soon as I hear from you I will forward to you the lawyer's contact who will help with all legal need of this claim for you.
If I have found you to be trustworthy and legally fit for this offer, i will offer to you 20% of the total funds for your personal use and the rest will go into the my wish.
Remain blessed in the Lord always.
Your's in Christ,
Mrs Mary Williams .
