Subject: IN GOOD FAITH
Dear Good Friend.
I greet you in the name of the Lord.
I am Mrs. mary williams from Solomon Islands. I am married to Mr.John williams
who worked with our Embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he diedon
the 15th August 2004. 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 into
many ministries. Since his death I decided not to remarry, but feeling quite
lonely if not the Lord who has been my partner and comforter. When my late
husband was alive he deposited the sum of $8.5 Million witha Bank in Cote
D lvoire. Presently this money is still in the custody of the Bank in Cote
D lvoire.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Eight
monthsdue to cancer problem. Having known my condition I decided to donate
this fund to a church,organization or good person that will utilize this
money the way I am going to instruct herein.
I want a church,organization or good person that willuse this funds to help
the orphans, widows and other people that needfinancial assistance. Using
part of this money to provide facilities for God,s work, taking the gospel
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
this money and my husband relatives are not Christians and it had been their
wish to see my husband dead in order that they might inherit his wealth
since 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 death
ence I know where I am going. It is only a sinner who's death is painful
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 and l know that With God all things
are possible.
As soon as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of the Bank
in Cote d' lvoire. I will also issue a letter of authorization to the bank
that will prove you the present beneficiary of this money. I also want
you to always uplift me in prayer.
My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that
Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in truth andfaith, "serving him
with all you have, knowing that naked we come and naked we must go"
Contact me on the this email address 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.
Mrs. mary williams
