Good day.
Greeting in the name of our lord Jesus christ. I am Dr Micheal Brown who is the personal physician to Evangelist Andrew Jones who is 72 years old and a new christain convert suffering from long time cancer of the brain, from all indication his cancerious conditions is really deteriorating and it is quite obvious that he wont live for long, this is because the cancer stage has gotten to its terminal stage.
His late Wife Mrs Grace Jones who happens to be a nationality of Cote D'Ivore was killed in a plane crash with his two sons . Evangelist Andrew Jones has directed me to contact you as he has decided to divide part of this wealth, by contributing towards the development of evangelism in America, Europe, Asian Countries and mostly African country because of the poverty ravaging Africa.according to his directives he said that he would be willing to donate the sum of $6.000,000.00 Million US Dollars to the less privileged. Please i want you to note that this fund was deposited in a bank in Cote D'Ivore abidjan. I honestly pray that this money,when transferred will be used for the said purpose, because he has come to realise that wealth acquisition without christ is vanity.
May the grace of our lord jesus the love of God and the fellowship of God be with you and your family, i await your urgent response as he would be going for an operation soon.
Doctor Micheal Brown on behalf of Evangelist Andrew Jones. MEDICAL DIRECTOR APEX HOPSITAL 00 225 07216 325
