Subject: Dearest in christ,
Dearest in christ,
I greet you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ our Lord, I am Mrs Favour
Johnson, from Kuwait I am married to Mr Paul Johnson, who worked with Kuwait
embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he died in the year 2004.
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 the sum of US$$4,000,000.00 Four Million,United
States Dollar in a Bank in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire West Africa.
Presently, this money is still in bank.Recently, my Doctor told me that I
would not last for the next Eight months due to cancer problem. The one that
disturbs me most is my stroke sickness. Having known my condition I decided
to donate this fund to a charity organization that will utilize this money
the way I am going to instruct herein.
I want an organization that will use this fund for orphanages, school and
church ,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 shall give you the contact of the Bank in
Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire west africa I want you and the church to always pray
for me because the lord is my shephard. 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 church 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
Take care,
In Christ's Holy Love
Yours Sister in christ
Mrs Favour Johnson
