Subject: Dearest one,
*Dearest In Christ,*
**
*Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, I am Mrs Jennifer Mariam
Kohne. from Kuwait. I am married to Mr.Jean Kohne who worked with Kuwait
embassy in Ivory Coast for nine years before he died in the year 2006.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$3.8million dollars in a Bank here in Abidjan Cote
d'Ivoire.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 for 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 here in Abidjan Cote d'Ivoire. 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 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.A**ny 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.
Yours in Christ,
Mrs Jennifer Mariam Kohne.**
