Dearly Beloved One,
I am Mrs. NINA DAVID, from Kuwait. I am married to late Mr. Samson DAVID, who worked with Kuwait Embassy in Ivory Coast for Twenty-Seven years before he died in the year 2001, after a brief illness that lasted for only five days. We were married for Nine years with a daughter (Lillian) who later died in a motor accident.
Before the untimely death of my husband, we were both born again Christians. Since after his death I lost happiness, and decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home which the Bible is against.
When my late husband was alive he deposited the sum of (US$2.2M) (Two million, Two Hundred Thousand United States Dollars) in a General Trust Account with prime bank in Madrid Spain. Presently, this money is still with the bank. Recently, following my ill health, my doctor told me that I may not last for the next seven months despite all that is my possession due to my cancer problem. The one that disturbs me most is my severe stroke sickness.
Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a Christian organization (Church) that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein, according to the desire of my late husband before his death.
I want this fund to be used in Christian Activities like, Orphanages, Christian 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", and there is happiness in giving than in receiving.
I took this bold 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 . I will also issue you the documents that will prove you the present beneficiary of this fund.
I want you to always pray for me because the lord is my shepherd. My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. And i know my destination whoever that wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and truth. Please always be prayerful for me and others.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs. Nina David
