------------------------------------




Dear Beloved In The Lord,

My christian greetings to you belove, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, who make it possible for me to be in contact with you these day to his glory, the LORD is the arthor and the finisher of our faith.

My name is sister Mercy Amin from sierra leone, i am from free town.I was married to Dr.Johnson Amin, he passed on to death on 28th November 2004.until his death he served as an archdeacon in the St.Micheal's archdeaconry in Ivory Coast for 14 years.
We were married for 33 years without any child. His death occured after a brief illness that lasted for only four days, he was my whole life and everything i lived and cared for, but that was how God wanted it, may his soul be in the hands of the LORD.
Before his death We loved each other so much after all those childless years, he was very supportive in everyway. Since his death I decided i feels like i have lost part of myself till these day.
&nbs p;
When my late husband was alive he SAVED the sum of $12.5.MILLION US DOLLARS in a Bank here in Abidjan the Commercial Capital of Cote D'Ivoire for Establishment and Development of Charity Organisation but death could not allow him to see the vision ALIFE.

I am in need of a HONEST Hearted Individual Christian or Church that i will OFFER this funds:

(FOR THE ESTABLISMENT OF ORPHANAGE HOME, FOOD PANTRIES, CLOTHES BANK FOR DISTRIBUTIONS FOR THE POOR OF THE POOR IN THE WORLD).


Just Some Few Months Ago, Medical Medicine and Doctors confirmed to me that I have a serious illness  which is Stroke with my left side which does not allow me to move freely and my present health situation is in a very critical shape, i don't know what might happen to me in the next few days or weeks ahead so that is the reason why i want to take this BOLD DECISION.

Having known my present health condition I decided to make the donat ion of this funds to any church(es) or individuals who can in real honesty will utilize this Funds the way I stated herein for the USAGE and who i will handle all the Related Legal Documents covering this Funds to.

My Bible made me to understand that "Blessed is the hand that giveth".This decision was taken because I didn't have any child that will inherit this funds and my husband relatives are not Christians, and greedy people, I wouldn't want me and my late husband's efforts to be used by unbelievers and greedy individuals for no profit. i do not want a situation where this Funds will be in the hand of ungodly persons.

If i have found you to be trustworthy and legally fit for this offer, i will offer to you 30% of the total funds for your personal use and 20% for my treatment when i come over to your country,then the rest will go into my WISH.

I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bossom of the Lord. Exodus 14 VS 14 says that"the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace".

With God all things are possible, for that i know.
As soon as I receive your reply I will give you the contact of the bank so that they will start the funds transfer procedures

Whoever that Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and Truth, always be prayerful all through your life.

Please kindly assure me that you will act accordingly as I have Stated herein. Hoping to receive your reply soonest.pls contact me with this my personal email address mercyamin2006@yahoo.com
