Dear Friend,
EDUCATIONAL APPEAL FUND
May the peace of God Almighty that passeth all understanding rest and abide
with thee,as it has always been in the beginning.I am grateful to the
Almighty for having kept you and me in good fate together in His holy
communion of love, as he said in his word in the book of Ps 25 vs 6"Remember
O Lord,thy tender mercies and thy loving kindness,for they have been ever of
old".What else is worth living on earth if not to serve and bless God
according to the book of Ps 34 vs 1 "I will bless the Lord at all times,His
praise shall continually be in my mouth.Halleluyah!".
Friend, my aim of writing is to request for funds for my education.I am
a young and dynamic student who believes in a bright future through God and
Education.I have always nursed the dream of becoming one of the greatest
Engineers the world has ever produced,this idea of becoming a renowed person
that would change the world to a better place become a part of me when i
discovered that with God and education i can achieve it.
Paul in the Bible said "we should study to show ourselves approved".At
present i am an undergraduate of Electrical and Electronics Engineering in
one of the renowned universities in my country (Nigeria),and the educational
system here does not allow the chance to work for a living while
schooling.How on earth would the money for my fees and books come from.I
can't watch and see my future shrink into the cold hands of failure and
poverty.That is why i am appealing for a token to help me pay my fees and
buy my recommended Textbooks.
God has been faithful to me,i have a friend whom God has been using to
provide my feeding at least two square meal a day,but is not that
financially bouyant as he sometimes needs help financially.Pastor,that is
why i'm appealing for this fund.
I know that wherever the money comes out from my God will
replenish a million fold"Amen!!!"
How and where the money could be sent,send it through the Western Union
Money Transfer or Money Gram to Nigeria with the name OJIRIKA EMMANUEL .
You can contact my friend Emmanuel Profey with is number
234-805-7040-466 or 234-803-4699-639.Mail me back if you send the money.
The information to send the token as follows,

Send me the other necessary information to me.
I will drop my pen at this juncture and expect your reply soonest.Let me
conclude by telling you that "the Lord will give unto you,the desires of
your heart and will not with hold the request of your lips"Amen!!!.
Yours in christ,
Ojirika Emmanuel
