PLEASE ENDEAVOUR TO USE THIS FOR CHARITY.
Calvary Greetings!!
My name is Mrs. Ruth makary a 65yrs old lady. I am a cancer
patient and a nationality of Kuwait. I am married to Mr.
Sammy Makary who worked with Kuwait embassy in SWITZERLAND
for nine years before he died in an automobile crash in
December 1999. We were married for eleven years without a
child. Before his death we were devoted Christians. When my
late husband was alive we protected our assets of $USD5
Million through the purchase of a life insurance policy
(Swiss variable annuities) from a Swiss life insurance
company. I was irrevocably designates as beneficiaries of
the policy. The purpose of this investment was to safe our
principal capital and make use of accrues income from the
annuities for our upkeep since the principal fund and the
accrued interest are exempt from Swiss taxes under Swiss
law. But unfortunately he dies.
Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last long due
to my cancer problem. Though what disturbs me most is my
stroke. I developed this sickness as a result of the sudden
shock and hearth attack I had when the breaking news came to
me on that faithful day that my husband was involved in an
auto crash and died at the spot in the city of Zurich in
December 1999.
Having known my condition I decided to liquidate these
assets and donate this fund with all the accrued interests
to church or better still a Christian individual that will
utilize this money the way I am going to instruct here in. I
want an individual that will use this fund to churches,
Orphanages, Research centers and widows, propagating the
word of God and to ensure that the house of God is
maintained.
I took this bold decision because I don’t have any child
that will inherit this money and my husband’s relatives
are of questionable characters and are not Christians. And I
don’t want my hard earned money to be misused by
unbelievers and I would dislike a situation where this money
will be used in an ungodly manner. Hence the reasons for
taking this bold decision.
I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going and
everyone is entitling to death. 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 and for the presence of my family relatives around me
always. I don’t want them to know about this development.
With God all things are possible.
I have briefed my attorney about this development. As soon
as I receive your reply I shall give you the contact of my
attorney in Edinburgh, UK whom shall issue you my power of
authority and other documents that would enable the trust
company to transfer the fund to you.
I want you and the church to always pray for me. 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 your
reply will give me room in sourcing for other people for
this same purpose.
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated
here. Expecting to hearing from you.
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs. Ruth Makary
