FAITH OF DONATION GIVEN TO YOU.
EVANG,MRS. SUSAN A WILLIAM,
765 WATER FRONT BOSTON HOUSE,
BELOVED IN CHRIST
Please Indevour To Use My Fund For The Chrildren Of God.
I am the above named person Evangelist Susan Williams. I am married
to Dr.Johnson G. WIlliam A Liberian but I'm now in Nigerian General Hospital
taking treatment for my sickness "Breaste Cancer", My husband worked with
London embassy in Liberia for nine years before he died in the year 2000.We
were married for eleven years without a child. He died after a brief illness
that lasted for only four days.Before his death we were both born again
Christians.Since his death I decided not to re-marry or get a child outside
my matrimonial home which the Bible is against.When my late husband was
alive he deposited the sum of$11.5 hundred thausand
(Eleveenmillion.fivehunderd thausand U.S.Dollars) in the Bank. Presently,
this money is still under the safe keeping of the Reserve, Bank .
My Doctor told me that I would not last for the next seven months due
to my cancer sickness.Though what disturbs me most is my stroke .Having
known my condition, I decided to donate this fund to church or better still
a Christian individual That will utilize this money the way I am going to
instruct here in. I want a church that will use this fund on, 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 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
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 because of 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 forward your
personal information to the Bank .so that they will contact you as the legal
owner of this fund before transferring the fund into your nominated Bank
Account in your country.
I will also issue you a letter of a authority that will empower you as the
original-beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church to always pray
for me because the lord is my shepherd.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 to my condition your delay
reply will give me room in sourcing for a church or Christian individual for
this same purpose.
Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I stated herein. Hoping to
hear from you as soon as possible..View my condition here inthe attachment
of this mailbox.
Remain blessed in the name of the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Evangelist Susan A Williams
