Subject: I greet you in the name of the Lord.
Dear Good Friend. I greet you in the name of the Lord. I am Mrs.Joan Rosenthal from Solomon Islands. I am married to Mr.John W. who served as an archdeacon in the St.Micheal's archdeaconry in Ivory Coast for 9 years(nine years) before he died on the 15th August 2005. 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 intomany ministries. Since his death I decided not to remarry, but feeling quitelonely if not the Lord who has been my partner and comforter. When my late husband was alive he concealed the sum of ($8.5 Million) in the trunk box and deposited it under the care of a security company in Cote D' lvoire as family valuable for security purpose. Presently this money is still in the custody of the security company in Cote D' lvoire. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Eight months dueto illness problem. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fundto a church,organization or good person that will utilize this money theway I am going to instruct herein. I want a church,organization or good person that will use this funds to helpthe orphans, widows and other people that need financial assistance.Using part of this money to provide facilities for God,s work, taking thegospel 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 thismoney and my husband relatives are not Christians and it had been theirwish to see my husband dead in order that they might inherit his wealthsince 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 deathhence I know where I am going. It is only a sinner who's death is painful I don'tneed any telephone communication in this regard because of my health hencethe presence of my husband's relatives around me always.I don't want them to know about this development and l know that With Godall things are possible. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the security company in Cote d' lvoire. I will also issue a letter of authorization to the that will prove you the present beneficiary of this money. I also want youto always uplift me in prayer. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever thatWants to serve the Lord must serve him in truth and faith, "serving him withall you have, knowing that naked we come and naked we must go" 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 herein.Hoping to receive your response immedaitely.Thanks and Remain blessed in the Lord.Your Sister in Christ.Sister joan rosenthal
