From: "Stella Catim" <sister_stella@latinmail.com>

Subject: Dear Beloved in Christ.
Dear Beloved in Christ.
I am sorry to take your time and to disturb you. I am Mrs. Stella Catim from Kuwait.
I am married to late Mr. Catim Martin, who worked with Kuwait Embassy in Ivory Coast for Twenty-Six years before he died in the year 2002, after a brief illness that lasted for only five days. We were married for Eighteen years with a daughter (Sandra) who later died in a motor accident. Before the untimely death of my husband, we were both born again Christian's. Since after his death I 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 (Seven Million, six hundred Thousand United States Dollars) in a Bank here in Abidjan.
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 eight months due to my cancer problem. The one that disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to a Christian organization (Church) or individual believer 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 under stand that "Blessed is the hand that grivets". 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 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 in Abidjan. I will also issue you the documents that will prove you the present beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the members of your Church to always spray 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 all through your life. Any delay in your reply will give me room in sourcing another person for this same purpose Please assure me that you will act accordingly as I Stated herein.
Hoping to receive your reply.
Remain blessed in the Lord.
Yours in Christ, Sister Stella Catim.
