Subject: A CRY FOR HELP
Dear Beloved in Christ,
It is by the grace of God that I received Christ, having known the truth,
I had no choice than to do what is lawful and just in the sight of God for
eternal life and in the sight of man for witness of God & is Mercies and
glory upon my life.
I am Mrs. Sarah Baxter, the wife of Mr. Ricky Baxter, my husband worked
with the Chevron/Texaco in Jordan for twenty years before he died in the
year 2005.We were married for ten years without a child. My Husband died
after a brief illness that lasted for only four days. Before his death we
both got born again and dedicated Christians.
Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside my
matrimonial home which the Bible is strongly against. When my late husband
was alive he deposited the sum of US$7.5 Million.(Seven Million Five
Hundred Thousand U.S.Dollars) with a Bank in Europe.
Presently, this money is still with the Bank and the management just wrote
me as the beneficiary that our account has been DORMANT and if I, as the
beneficiary of the funds, do not re-activate the account; the funds will
be CONFISCATED or I rather issue a letter of authorization to somebody to
receive it on my behalf (note that you need to activate this account) as I
can not come over. Presently, I'm in a hospital in Jordan where I have
been undergoing treatment for esophageal cancer.
I have since lost my ability to talk and my doctors have told me that I
have only a few weeks to live. It is my last wish to see this money
distributed to charity organizations anywhere in the World. Because
relatives and friends have plundered so much of my wealth since my
illness, I cannot live with the agony of entrusting this huge
responsibility to any of them.
Please, I beg you in the name of God to help me Stand-in as the
beneficiary and collect the Funds from the Bank. I want a person that is
God-fearing who will use this money to fund churches, 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 giveth. I
took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this
money and my husband's 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
reason for taking this bold decision.
I am not afraid of death since I know where I am going to. I know that I
am going to be in the bosom of the Lord. {Exodus14 VS14} 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 soundless voice and
presence of my husband's relatives around me always. I don't want them to
know about this development.
With God all things are possible.
If you are interested in help me fulfill this dream, you can email to my
personal email: baxter0822@gmail.com
You’re Sister in Christ,
Mrs. Sarah Baxter
