Dear in the lord
mrs_hawa@yahoo.ca
I am Mrs.hawa ASHMO, from Kuwait. I am married to Mr. Lobi onoh who
worked with Kuwait embassy in Accra Ghana for nine years before he died
in the year 2005.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 Christian. Since 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 One metallic trunk box that
contains the sum of$8.5Million with a private security company as our family
precious items.Presently, this money is still in the custody of the security
company. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would notlast for the next Eight
months due to cancer problem.Having known my condition I decided to donate
this fund to a church that will utilize this money the way I am going to
instruct herein. I want a church that will use this fund for orphanages,
widows, 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".
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 shallgive you the contact of the security company.
I will also issue you an authority letter that will prove you the present
beneficiary of this fund. I want you and the church to always pray for me
because thelord is my shepherd. My happiness is thatI 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 church or individual
for this same purpose. Please assure me that you will act accordingly as
I Stated here in. Hoping to receive your reply.
Remain blessed in the Lord.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs.hawa ASHMO
