Greetings In the name of God Almighty,
INTRODUCTION: I am Mrs. Elizabeth Joshua, from Kuwait. I am married to late
Dr. Solomon Joshua, of blessed memory who was a Cocoa Merchant and an Oil
Explorer in Abidjan-Ivory Coast for many years before he died in the year
2005. We were married for twenty five years without a child. I was a Muslim
before we got married but my husband converted me to Christianity and we
were both born again Christians and since the death of my husband, I have
been battling with both lung cancer and stroke. When my late husband was
alive he deposited US$1.200,000.00 (One Million Two Hundred Thousand United
States Dollars) with a bank here in Abidajn-Ivory Coast. after his death I
decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home.
According to the doctor, my medical report quotes a very short life sperm
due to my health status presently. May be I may still have another 3-4 weeks
to live, that I do not know but God can say. That is just my faith as a
deteriorating cancer patient.
Recently, I am been disturbs by my one sided paralyses due to stroke
diagnoses. but I pray to God to heal me so that I will be alive and see this
work done as my late husband instructed me.
Having known my condition I decided to donate the above mentioned fund to an
individual Muslim/Christian or any faith, so that He/She will utilize this
money the way I am going to instruct herein, I want an individual that will
use this fund for the less privilege ones like; orphanages, widows, also
help our old ones who is unable to cater for their needs. The Bible/Qur'an
made us to understand that blessed is the hand that giveth.
I took this decision because we don't have any child that will inherit this
money and my husband relatives has possesses all my late husband properties
and left me with nothing. I don't want my late husband's relatives to know
about this development, I know if I ask them to use these funds for less
privilege ones they will use it for their own vested/perosnal interest. I
don't want a situation where this money will be used in such manner, this is
why I am taking this decision, I know we have not meet before but I want you
to consider this mission as DIVINE MISSION!!!
I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going, 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 want you and your family to always pray for me because the lord is my
shephard, my happiness is that I lived a worthy life and whoever that want
to serve the God must serve him in spirit and truth.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you more details regarding this
great mission.
Remain blessed.
Yours sister,
Mrs. Elizabeth Joshua
