Subject: YOUR KIND ATTENTION
I am Mrs Linda Gemayel widow of late Mr Desu Gemayel, who worked with a Lebanese Embassy in Asia for Twenty-Six years before he died in the year 2006,after a brief illness that lasted for only five days. We were married for Eighteen years with a duaghter(Lilian)waho later died in a car crash.I and my husband and were both born again Christians, after his death I decided not to remarry or have a child outside my matrimonial home . When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of (Two Million,Eight hundred Thousand United States Dollar) in a General Trust Account with a prime bank in Asia. Presently,this money is still lordged with this bank.Following my ill health, my Doctor told me, I may not last for the next eight months due to cancer problem,The one that disturbs me most is my stroke illness.Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a Christain organization (Church) that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein,according to the desire of my late husband. I want this fund to be used in Christain Activities like funding Orphanages, Christain schools, and Churches for propagating the word of God and to endeavor 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 relatives are not Christians and I don't want my husband's efforts to be used by unbelievers. I don't want a situation where this money will be used in an ungodly way. This is why I am taking this decision. 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 don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health hence the 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. As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the bank in Asia. I will also issue you the documents that will prove you the present beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the Church to always pray for me because the lord is my shephard. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and Truth. Please always be prayerful all through your life.any delay in yourreply will give me room in sourcing another individual for this same purpose.
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I Stated herein. Hoping to receive your reply via my private mailling address
Â
Remain blessed in the Lord.
Yours in Christ
Mrs Linda Gemayel
